I am here to
tell you
we can never
meet again
Simple really,
isn't it?
A world or two
and then
A lifetime of not
knowing where
or how or why
or when
You think of me
or speak of me
Or wonder
what befell
The someone you
once loved so
long ago so well
Never wonder
where to feel as
living shuffles by
You don't have
to ask me
and I need
not reply
Every moment
of my life
for now until
I die
I will think or
dream of you
And fail to
understand
How a perfect love
can be confounded
out of hand
Is it written
in the stars?
Are we paying
for some crime?
Is that all
that we are
good for
Just to stretch
immortal time?
Is this
God's experiment
In which we
have no say?
In which we
live in paradise
But only
for a day?
Nothing can
be altered
Oh, there is
nothing to decide
No escape,
no change
of heart
Nor any place
to hide
You are all
I'll ever want
But this I
am denied
Sometimes in my
darkest thoughts
I wish I'd
never learned
What is to
be in love
and have that
love returned
Is it written
in the stars?
Are we paying
for some crime?
Is that all that
we are good for?
Just to stretch
immortal time?
Is this God's
experiment
In which we
have no say?
In which we live
in paradise
But only
for a day?
Is this God's
experiment
In which we
have no say?
In which we
have no say
In which we live
in paradise
Live in paradise
But only
for a day..
