Saw a girl
In a striped white shirt walk by
She’s kinda cute, but I am shy
and besides, just now
got a little high
Don’t even try to deny
I’mma say, you are a one
Taking my breath away
Make my mind sway
in a cool autumn breeze
All summer waiting
For someone walking by
Someone to take me high
driving me mildly wild
All so low
Down below
already waiting for the snow
to curse the white winter wonder
bothers all, the cold
we all always only growing old
Looking with the eyes
those two that blind
Puts the truth in disguise
rolling dice and putting ice
On a wound that needs warmth
endorsed by a helping hand that lends support
not because he's lonesome and wants an escort
someone who truly takes care, even if he sometimes has to swear
That is true,
what he is doing to you
Pulling you along
out of comfort zone, of the palms of the contorted
those that hold you too tight, make it right
Wish them a good night, and say it’s alright
One night, you might get to know
Why I wanted you to come to the show
That one time, when the air was clear
our minds were near
The sun shone light
On the moon rising from the skyline
Even at night, it always shines bright
light on the other side
The one I can’t see
not with my two eyes
But the other one, that usually
is made to hide, left to abide
for when alone, and
leaving out the postponed
When no one to hear, all the things one could have said
But were rather left to remain dead
