Parachute Woman

I go back
to the place
we first met
the ghost
of you I
can't forget

The time spent
at my place
I'll never regret
seeing your
beautiful face

Now my heart
is falling
spiraling down
in flames
feelings lingering

Parachute woman
I'm in a
freefall high
above this land
all I see
are shadows
of you

I can't wait
for different love
or for
another parachute
to come along
and save me

Our passion
burned like a
midnight sun
maybe I'll 
find another
but you 
are the one...
