The quiver of a lip
The sunset that drips
Onto your skin
Cascades to the floor
Wicks with no wax
We made a pact
The darkness it grows
I'll hold onto you for
Dear life
Till the sunset appears
A night like this
I'll never fear
Because I have you
Right next to me
The warmth of your breath
Fills me with ease
Tell me, is this for real?
Whisper in my ear
Specks of moonlight glint on your face
Through the window pane
The shadows that crawl
Don't scare me at all
The nails in my palm
Ground me in this
Moment
Alone with you
The past flew away
We both grew
Into each other
One we've become
When daylight appears
I'll still be here
Tell me, is this for real?
Because I have you
Right next to me
The warmth of your breath
Fills me with ease
Tell me, is this for real?
