tell me i can make this day last forever
that i can freeze time on that one beach,
for that one moment, and do it over and
over again, always.
tell me i don’t have to lose.
i couldn’t have made this up if i tried
and yet somehow i wish i had
because dreams are easier to part with
and suddenly it’s like i can’t breathe.
this is stupid, this is masochistic,
but you’re so real and i’m so sure
and quietly i’m tearing down all my walls
so you can see every inch of me
so here is my shoreline
you can have every acre, love.
just promise the trade winds
will bring you back to me.
