lyrics

Life to me seems a joke,
this truth can’t be real.
yet,
so sure and ungracefully,
i’d held your hand for a while

strange how it felt so real -
i swear i was there.
flowers on the breeze,
i felt the sun beat on my neck

to have had
and
to have lost -
the same two sides
of a love’s great cost.

but
like i’ve read,
to chase such things
may
grace us with a snowfall in spring.

a shimmer in the light,
the gleam in your eyes

so cool and easy
u walked by with ur hair let down

cobalt is the sky,
venus at dawn,
this dream slipped from my hands
in a picture from the past

it’s hard enough
to wake each day
but it was
love
and it will still find a way

the chance is rare,
when it hits you hard
your heart is soft
it will leave it’s scar

if it hurts,
is it worth the pain?
loss & love are just one the same

and
like i’ve read,
to chase such things
may
grace us with a snowfall in spring
