aM i DiStUrBeD? It was right there and then
That I just wanted to take him into my arms
Scoop him up into my heart
And hold him against my soul.

But I knew that each moment we are living, saving the last
And safety we cannot hold onto, no one is safe.
It can all slip away, like a star at the end of its life,
No-one notices.
I like that. Everyone is different, yet
We are all the same.
Maybe I’m selfish.

But I know that we’ll all loose everything
When you and I spent our summers prematurely.
Still I’ll roar with you into the darkness
Until we meet, twelve years later,
At dawn.

And we’ll keep these moments locked so tightly
That time itself becomes the key,
And we’ll never give up.
We’ll eat maroon velvet cake and wash it down with moondust,
Before we become the spec in the eye of our children.
And then, only then, will we burn with passion.

Those summers returned
And those stars will be repaid
With our lives.
Those memories replayed:
Our lives.
We will burn, my love, we will burn.
