The eyes can wander
But a gaze must stand
Your smell never falters
Except with the wave of my hand
I perspire with your tears
Mind melts in a trance
Too many short journeys
Passed up in a glance
And my heart is a chasm
That you can go as deep as you'd like
And my mind is a treadmill
That you can run for as long as you'd like
And I know that I can never suffice
And I know that I might as well try
And if heaven were under the sky
Then you'd be the reason why
And if you needed time to stop
I'd destroy every winding clock
And if you wanted night soon
I'd rearrange the sun and the moon
Epochs of time are not enough to satisfy my hunger for you
To be mine is to be yours too
I feel like I lose her every time she's not here first
Her presence is water and I'm dying of thirst
And I know that I can never suffice
And I know that I might as well try
And if heaven were under the sky
Then you'd be the reason why
When I see you I go
The way she holds command of her words
And strokes her hands in the air with no verbs
And traces with blue eyes that exert
And her air sends back all stress in a herd
And I know that I can never suffice
And I know that I might as well try
And if heaven were under the sky
Then you'd be the reason why
And I know that I can never suffice
And I know that I might as well try
And if heaven were under the sky
Then you'd be the reason why
And if you needed time to stop
I'd destroy every winding clock
And if you wanted night soon
I'd rearrange the sun and the moon
And if Cleopatra were to grant me this choice
And if Cleopatra were to notice my voice
Then what was might become what might be
A soul tied is a soul finally free
