Strolling through the corners of someone else's mind I realize, and idealize until the daylight has all gone dark But,I'm almost sure that I am no closer to the starlight No closer then I was before this test And I wonder exactly what I'm doing here, with you... Sometimes I've got to leap before I look Just as I've sometimes got to fall before I can fly It's all a matter of where I'm at, and what my options are And what risk exactly that I'm willing to take Oh, and trust me, will you? I'm willing to risk it all, banking on Lady Luck While holding hands with her sister, Lady Fate If the heart is the cost then, well, so be it For the potential heartbreak is worth the potential love And there is as much to be lost, as there is to be gained... Sitting in the dark now, quietly, comfortably alone The shadows do not scare me,nor does the silence that I hear That is, if silence can truly be heard by ears that ring Ring with velvet raindrop words whispered into mine ear And with words spoken into mind, without the force of voice Now so be it, my mind is filled and bursting with thoughts Words ebbing and flowing, changing and swirling And I now realize that I am close to the starlight, now The starlight in your eyes... |
