Squeeze In Some Old Love

Night sky is splashed with glitter, As I lie on my back in the desert sand Reminiscing this is where we first met This is where I once held your hand. The icy wind blows cutting deep in my bones is it you or is it me I am wondering, Which one of us has to take the blame Of these mean cold vibes initiating I take a handful of sand in my fist Helplessly see the time slip Just as the sand slips out Even as I try to tighten my grip When did we drift apart exactly When did our love perish That we turned deaf to each other's Sounds of anguish I write in the sand and watch as the wind wipes it clean Lets find that old love to start afresh And wipe the slate clean And There are thousands more wishes than my few left breaths could fulfill I know it is autumn of our lives Lets squeeze some old love in the chill
