You're the only fire I want to burn in

 It's not easy, it's not real.. 

Won't depend on how you feel


It's not final. Not as deep

as the promise that we tried to keep


I could almost feel your pain

As you let go off my hand again


I could almost taste your lips

From your marks on my fingertips


I could almost live that night

When we set our dreams alight


I could almost hear you say

these feelings don't just go away


It's not easy, we were close

Lips to lips and nose to nose


It's not easy, we're apart

So far, yet so close to heart.. 


You're a sword, is what you say

Hurting things that come your way


I am a sailor out of sight

You are the shore I hit at night


And I let my blind desire

Draw us close like a moth to fire


Feel your curves, explore your skin

You're the only fire I want to burn in


Aditee

Do you see me standing here?



The world goes passing by in haste

As I wait for my mind to clear

I feel your hazel eyes on me

Do you see me standing here? 


We met when night was almost young

I let you hear me loud and clear

As you handled my tender strings

Do you see me standing here? 


I let your lips explore my wounds

Against all odds, I let you near

And now that I am raw, undressed

Do you see me standing here? 


I always loved to live with you

To love you was my only fear

And now that we are miles apart

Do you see me standing here? 


You tried to save our sinking ship

I waited for the coast to clear

I'm still ashore and you're adrift

Do you see me standing here? 


It's dark despite the moonlit sky

It's dark as if the end is near

I feel your hazel eyes on me

Do you see me standing here?
