I know
The lightning comes and goes
I’ve seen the way it throws
Its light and goes
I hear
The thunder drawing near
The mix of thrill and fear
That holds me here
Like a child caught in wonder
I see
It all in front of me
The days of agony
The hours spent
Breathing life in every shadow
Each night
Replayed in black and white
While somewhere out of sight
The silent bullet
Travels in slow motion
The kiss
I know will lead to this
The torture and the bliss
The time of Valentines
And still believing
The ways
The weeks will pass like days
The days I’ll catch your gaze
And be amazed
The time it takes
To light a wish
And float it on a dream
And you’ll be gone
And I’ll go on
Like nothing was
I’ll carry on
But until then
For right or wrong
Kiss me
How soon
Your ghosts will fill this room
With each forgotten tune
Each faded bloom
Each day
I’ll feel you slip away
With every word I say
To make you stay
Just pushing you a little further
See how
The twilight changes now
The colours break somehow
The darkening sky
Turns shades of grey and yellow
I’m cold
And tired of feeling cold
And tired of keeping hold
And tired of being tired
And tired of wanting
The rain
Comes thundering down again
As I breathe on the pane
And write your name in love’s
Fleeting graffiti
I know
The lightning comes and goes
I’ve seen the way it throws
Its light and goes
The time it takes
To call your name
And slowly fall apart
And you’ll be gone
And I’ll go on
I’ll stand up tall
I’ll carry on
But until then
Oh my love
Kiss me
