It's a sad and strange adventure
Falling into someone's heart
Never certain what we're meant for
Never til it pulls apart
We are doomed as falling stars are
Disintegrating blaze of light
Spiraling like paper aircraft
Gravity too hard to fight
We throw our words around like toys
And dare them not to break
Maybe someday we won't make the same mistake
Longing for the silver lining
Forgetting that it comes with clouds
Stumble down the path unwinding
Disoriented, turned around
We put our hearts to sleep with words
And dare them not to wake
Maybe someday we will learn from our mistakes
When I knew you we were children
Like a child we soon forget
Things of beauty become memories
Memories become regrets
Half a lifetime spent in reverie
A summer night when last we met
Can't begin without an ending
Could be it hasn't happened yet
With blindfolds tight about our hearts
We dare them not to sway
Maybe someday we will let them find their way
We send our love into the world
And dare it not to stray
Maybe it will come back home
Someday
