perhaps you could
steal away with me tonight.
for a moment, or forever
maybe just somewhere in between.
just a few seconds, and see, we've broken through
that tiny point on the horizon that seemed
so far away
can't stop and smell the roses, because our freedom is
locked inside this speed.
i don't bother looking for the stars
you're right here next to me.
we don't need to speak, for words only
break the motion.
we fly too fast to see a thing, only each other's eyes.
we are alive, tears spilling and left behind in the dust.
we splash through the mud and leave our reaching handprints
and a few dirty kisses on our cheeks.
we are the roses, the stars and the rain.
we are those lost kisses we dreamed of in sleep.
and we can't slow down
we won't slow down, not for a split second

you know we'd rather die in this blur
than spend eternity watching it fly by
