Platonic Game

Now you are bored and tired 
Of this platonic game 
But I don’t blame you, baby
Cause it’s my fate; it seems

The partition of unbreakable glass 
That keeps us apart
Reminds us how helpless we are
Every time we want to make love

Now your love seems to fade out
Like your favorite dress
Worn in rough weather
Every Everyday
And I know for sure
You are gonna throw it away

You lured me to come and play 
But it went in vain
Now all of my flying kisses 
Have lost their way 
Because of the difficult journey
Through the deserts, jungles and mountains
