When it touches

One moment to laugh, one moment to cry

One moment to give up on you and one moment to try

Moments leave me, want to live them instead

With you I stand the world, alone I fear to tread

A rain of your love I wish, for this dry spell to pass

Like a million morning dew sparkle on wilted grass

It all ends with your thought, wherever I start

And blood rushes beneath my skin, to my heart

Nothing could save me, nothing would go right

But with you, I feel true; in the darkness I see light

I took a call and you began to stall*, cuts me like a knife

But you’re worth a wait, and I don’t mean just this life

Your love; when it touches, my heart begins to beat

When I make you feel flawless, you make me feel complete

I know we’re not exception, nothing lasts forever

We can’t win this mortality; at least we can try it together
