Every time alone with you,
i realize may be the last.
no one’s ever gone this far-
stride for stride with me- before.
every night imprints
an eternity of memories
which flash at me -
they flash at me -
hauntingly….
nightmare-coded realities.
’cause i’m never gonna
get back here
never gonna go this far
never gonna find my way
without you.
This lasting melody-
unique as snow flurries
flaking in the summer.
lasting in our fraternity,
hoping to never see
the light of day.
tomorrow’s sun never shines;
not in your or my mind.
’cause i’m never gonna
get back here
never gonna go this far
never gonna find my way
without you.
I’ve never been so close,
so close, to the edge;
when you took me
by the hand and
pushed us way -
ov-er the limit.
the last one i remember, that is.
now, an infinity
of limitless possibilities
reside before me.
Whether facing them alone,
or with you by my side,
i’ll keep my eyes open wide…
waiting for you-
to take me
by the hand
and push us way -
ov-er the limit.
When i took that flight-
a careless passenger
aboard time’s endless trip…
breezing through todays
’till tomorrow finally comes.
looking forward to that -
my only certainty, certainly.
existing now and always ‘fore
wandering future, not so sure….
’cause an infinity
of limitless possibilities
stares right thru the heart of me.
waiting, wishing for you
to take me
by the hand
and push us way -
ov-er the limit.
but, we never got back there;
never went that far again…
and i never could find my way
with out you.
