cold numbing hands wrap around our shots
our only company, your shadow and my thoughts
a hundred secrets our silent voices speak
as the red slowly turns to blue on your cheeks,
time grows old it blows your hair on my face
clothed in the same night but between us is too much space
your judgment hangs cloudy just like your smoke
down this alley of memories, we listen for the chime on the stroke,
i hear my shaking breath and your little feet
going down this road in perfect symphony
i see you in the stars spread all above the park
you're the lighthouse to my storm, you glow when it's dark,
you spark me better than lightning in its glory
around the campfire i'm the song you're the ghost story
you're the best part of me i don't want you out of sight
you're the never melting snow on my harsh mountain heights.
I make a feeble promise i say one last prayer
but i know it's gone like the mark my breath leaves in the air
and the thousand eyes of night watch over us as we part
her trust clasped in my hand her presence forever in my heart.
