A Lover's Time

A Lover's Time

I can't sleep every night
Thinking of you when in touchless sight
The flowers grow on the ceiling
And I can't help this lonely feeling
Of missing you, time and time again

The rainbow fell such a glory to shame
All in a while I have nothing to blame
But the tired confusion of my love
Gone forever into a light of shine
Waiting for my darkness to guide a path
When you are the one I thought would last

And if you had a timeless gift to give
Would you spend it with me
Or have it all go to the sea
As a message to travel a thousand miles
In search for a lover to love you just a while

We are here for a short time
Lining up in the grand line
Picking to be with when we go with
But love still is those flowers
Growing on the ceiling as short as towers

And in the end all that was
Is a photograph or memory
Plotting the cause
