give me your fingers
and i shall write you some lines
etch a melody across your palm
and trailing down your spine
even when we are fighting
and upset with each other
promise me neither of us
will have to sleep alone
i want your cold nose bumping
against the back of my neck
and i want our whole world
to remember how it felt
when i first met you -
with your hair scruffy and
your nail polish chipped
you are so beautiful to me
and we will never forget
to have pride
in our lips crashing together
to have pride
in drinking bitter coffee
before the sun has risen
i can feel pride
in every heartbeat
pulsing through the speakers
echoing through my body
and overflowing my soul
oh and our lives are so alive
with red love and pain and life
we have the orange sun
above us for healing and
to remind us how bright we burn
yellow sunlight is your smiles and laughter
it fills me with hope
for a future that is green
with nature’s melody
reaching every part of the globe
a blue ocean of peace and harmony
raining down on the earth
cleansing our faces and
soaking our smiles
to paint our spirits
in purple and violet
so that we become galaxies
infinite and amazing
and brimming with impossibilities
just a few lines
just a few songs
just a few more kisses
and an exchange of quiet words
filled with memories and dreams
and having the courage to fight and to love
to wake up with each other
to you and me
cold noses and laced fingers
and i shall write you some lines
etch a melody across your palm
and trailing down your spine
even when we are fighting
and upset with each other
promise me neither of us
will have to sleep alone
i want your cold nose bumping
against the back of my neck
and i want our whole world
to remember how it felt
when i first met you -
with your hair scruffy and
your nail polish chipped
you are so beautiful to me
and we will never forget
to have pride
in our lips crashing together
to have pride
in drinking bitter coffee
before the sun has risen
i can feel pride
in every heartbeat
pulsing through the speakers
echoing through my body
and overflowing my soul
oh and our lives are so alive
with red love and pain and life
