dream of forgiveness

you were such perfection
an eternal dream of forgiveness
emerging from the train station
wearing a white halo and a shy grin
everyone in Gare du Nord disappeared
as destiny pulled us in
to that great circle of love
little did we know, we were
falling for one another like a
junkie falls for their drug
but something happened to me
I'm a prisoner to my own device
never to be set free

keep me close
like this
or far away
over blinking lights
we'll forever lay
on daises of youth
lost along the way
of heated nights
and rainy fights

such straight black magic
making me run
from here to there
always burned by the sun
before I can seek the shadows
where your love waits
as calm and aromatic
as lavender meadows
in France where as young adults
we danced beneath orange lights
and the bustle of the street
kept us up all night
kissing on Rue Beautrellis
without a drop of sleep

keep me close
like this
or far away
over blinking lights
we'll forever lay
on daises of youth
lost along the way
of heated nights
and rainy fights

its been so many years
and nothing has changed
we've grown older and
I've met new fears
so cold and defeated
this love is now gone
removed from its throne
from which it was once seated
silence has made it all black
just like that night you
hailed a taxi and never looked back
forcing me to find God and
get drunk and lose my mind
I did all of this perfectly
I accomplished it in no time

keep me close
like this
or far away
over blinking lights
we'll forever lay
on daisies of youth
lost along the way
of heated nights
and rainy fights
