Strangers Met

I met you by the river
Slow to run, slow to see
I wasn't convinced you would've seen me that day
But I saw you that day
We could've ruined everything 
But it was a fortune crack out of thin air
Take me to your wind and let's see each other again
I haven't yet called your name but your scent is felt here
Just under the palm of my hand
Death and rebirth is what we're meant to create
Beauty of mine
Do not leave me
Sea of love
Hold on to me
The church has angels ringing its bells
And our time is calling
