[Verse 1]
My face needed sunlight
You walked in the room
Fair skin of compassion
Spring flowers in bloom
You and I met before this
In some other space
But tonight we saw colours
Erupt in new ways
Impossible lovers
I suppose we all are
Perhaps you seduced me
It wasn't so hard
[Chorus 1]
Two comfortable strangers
No longer apart
Our bodies had warned us
Not to wake up the heart
Will we ever comprehend
What was set in motion way back then?
[Verse 2]
You had your hands tied
But you could use mine
You tried leaning way back
And rеdrew the line
Clandеstine hotel rooms
Away in the shade
Awash in new colours
Erupting in new ways
You turned hesitation
Into a dark art
And my inspiration
Awoke with a start
[Chorus 2]
I'm free as the landscapes
You conquer in dreams
I know you're itching to follow
That you're swallowing screams
Will we ever comprehend
What was set in motion way back then?
[Verse 3]
So how can you love me
You asked with your eyes
Under cover of darkness
And street lights that shine
I pulled you in tighter
As we intertwined
I said, will I ever convince you
My love isn't a lie?
You said, love is a moment
And it can extend
And falter and alter
And wither and bend
[Verse 4]
It's all things unspoken
It's all things revealed
It's there when our lips touch
It's what they conceal
How you're an old spirit
The rarest of birds
And how you are tender
When you greet the world
You can't help but find me
You reel me back in
When I try to let go
Or be gone with the wind
[Outro]
We cannot un-see this
But will you dare stay
To feel every colour
Erupt in our way?
Cause it's happening again
We keep failing to embrace the end
Will we ever comprehend
What was set in motion way back then?
