I had never seen
_____
I live in a world where things present themselves
_____
Maybe that's why I didn't ask your hand where we're going
_____
I wished it would take me away from there
_____
A flash in the middle of the sky
_____
You closed your eyes and everything about me changed
_____
Between my body and the mirror
_____
And I tried to take your face off my reflection
But by then it wasn't there anymore
_____
And despite everything, despite the squalor
_____
That seed you planted inside has become a flower
_____
A flower in the desert of our love
While the sky was burning
_____
I was shouting you out loud inside a song
That by then you weren't there
By then there was only you
By then there was only you
By then there was only you
