Heartache Takes a Holiday

You slay me all the way to yesterday
When we confessed our hearts in trust.
Thinking about tomorrow and your
Forever ways. What is to become of us?
I want so disparately to send 
Heartache on a holiday.
I know this sounds cliché but I love
You more than I love the sun kissed sky.
 I know you love me too.
I saw it in your eyes last July.

This time, despite our hearts contrite, It's right
I'm thinking of your heavenly face as I lay
Soaking up the moon spellbound by my own
Yearning I'm learning not to submit 
To this pain I've found. 
My heart wants me to trust that you
Will satisfy my appetite.
I am love stricken without a sound
I fall down soundlessly delirious
I recognize nothing except your eyes

Pools of desire I want all of you those lips
A simple sip, the pain subsides 
I'm wishing on every star tonight 
Where destiny hides.
I love you beyond the heartache
Reminiscing as it takes a holiday.
Do you remember how we touched?
A ravenous appetite between us
Remember the RUSH?
Snowy days? 
Blossoms in May?

Stay until December, STAY?
Do you remember my whispers?
I'll never forget your gentle finger tips.
Your hand on my face
How could I forget that place?
