The walk back home feels so long
_____
And today felt like the end of the world
We’re just lights, just lights
_____
The rain doesn’t soak you inside
_____
And skin dries in the wind
From the end of the street
_____
We’re only the lights, just lights
_____
’Cause love is everything ai ai ai
_____
So maybe, just maybe I’m right
_____
Love is everything and everything else is distraction
_____
This time, only this time, I’ll wait
_____
To read life as if time were a poet
_____
Carry memories in your jeans pockets
_____
Whether they wound or heal, nobody knows
_____
If what binds us turns them into home
_____
The doorway to love is longing
I build my house in poetry
_____
And rhyme my sorrow with the cure
_____
I sing the handwriting while the melody holds
_____
’Cause love is everything ai ai ai
_____
So maybe, just maybe I’m right
_____
Love is everything and everything else is distraction
_____
This time, only this time, I’ll wait
_____
To read life as if time were a poet
_____
So maybe, just maybe I’m right
_____
And everything else is distraction
_____
This time, only this time, I’ll wait
_____
To read life as if time were a poet
_____
So maybe, just maybe I’m right
_____
And everything else is distraction
_____
This time, only this time, I’ll wait
_____
To read life as if time were a poet
