comfort smiling,
undeniable,
when I saw you, you were there.
we didn't want it, but we,
we didn't want anything else
you were that part of me
that I had always known
without console, you were my soul
magnets facing forces and we tried...
oh how we tried
sure we were kids, in this world
pained and tortured by our will
and we never imagined this
oh god how it was bliss
to breathe in your arms
six a.m. and all there was,
sunlight imposing
a gentle way to break a dream
we let it go
time and distance took control
the winter came and stole our memories
seasons change
and winter never stayed
but you have been a constant in my life...
you're always in my life
we didn't see, we didn't touch
but I still love you so much
and we never imagined this
oh god how it was bliss
to breathe in your arms
I remember looking for you
I went back to that town
I remember finding that your house had been torn down
you've made another life
now we're a memory
but you'll always be with me...
I took a moment on that hillside
to breathe back in the air
closed my eyes and realized
that you're still standing there
I remember kissing all the freckles on your face
oh god how it was bliss...
oh god how it was bliss.
