You always notice the things I try to hide
And I see the stars when I stare into your eyes
I think of your presence when moonlight fills the sky
And it's simply evil how close I'll keep these times
Sometimes it's hard to believe you're for me
I still cherish you while I'm asleep
We've got the afternoon
We're safe here in your room
But I blink and there's the moon
I watch the tides roll into you
I'm not as strong as the constant march of time
So I cling to right now cause I'll love you down the line
It's hard to be honest when truth hurts more than lies
So I keep myself busy so tears don't fill my eyes
The storm's coming right after you
Don't assume that we're making it out this monsoon
We've got the afternoon
We're safe here in your room
But I blink and there's the moon
I watch the tides roll into you
It's not fair to have perfection fall between my hands
