Bending Reality

Gaze up at the brilliant velvet sky; I feel like being helplessly in love for tonight. So baby, I hope you pass my insane thoughts by, And lay down to settle by my side. I can feel the miles between our hands, Where the wind lets our passion dance, As it floats along tree tops, but we’re still apart Even though these blindsided eyes fool my heart. Those perfect notes are hit at desperation’s high, As my helpless hoping covers the night sky. So when it rains you’ll see me longing in the tears, And let the wind echo my long lover’s sigh. Spin my tired heart on that vibrating string, As you thoughtfully strum, so you begin To fill emptiness with whirling wonder, Whispering the love that you cannot bring. This island isn’t built for you without me, And all of life will exist unknowingly, But as love’s branches reach to touch the stars, In your arms is still where I want to be. I feel like being helplessly in love for tonight. So baby, just describe a scene for my weary eyes, I got so lost in that unbreakable night sky; That I could almost taste your lips against mine.
