Untitled (“We were lying in your…”)

We were laying in your
Bed looking at the wall
The sun was dipping lower, I
Looked into your eyes.
You saw what I was feeling, and I
Know you felt it too.
We wanted time to just stand still,
Then forever there would be me & you
Why can’t we freeze this moment, return to it in time
Stay together thru the years, let it be known
That I’m yours & you’re mines.
So let us freeze this moment, store it
Safely away
Even if we leave this place we’ll return to it
when you come home you know what you do 2 me
You’re the only person that keeps me up.
