I am here to tell you we can never meet again
|
Simple really, isn't it? A word or two and then
|
A lifetime of not knowing where or how or why or when
|
You think of me or speak of me or wonder what befell
|
The someone you once loved so long ago, so well
|
|
Never wonder what I'll feel as living shuffles by
|
You don't have to ask me and I need not reply
|
Every moment of my life from now until I die
|
I will think or dream of you and fail to understand
|
How a perfect love can be confounded out of hand
|
|
Is it written in the stars?
|
Are we paying for some crime?
|
Is that all that we are good for
|
Just a stretch of mortal time?
|
Is this some god's experiment
|
In which we have no say?
|
In which we're given paradise
|
But only for a day
|
|
Nothing can be altered, there is nothing to decide
|
No escape, no change of heart, nor any place to hide
|
You are all I'll ever want but this I am denied
|
Sometimes in my darkest thoughts I wish I'd never learned
|
What is to be in love and have that love returned
|
|
Is it written in the stars?
|
Are we paying for some crime?
|
Is that all that we are good for
|
Just a stretch of mortal time?
|
Is this some god's experiment
|
In which we have no say?
|
In which we're given paradise
|
But only for a day
|
|
Is this some god's experiment
|
In which we have no say?
|
In which we're given paradise
|
But only for a day
|
