Ephemera

We'd build a home At least you'd make me whole When we're apart I could fold a map And bring us close And only knowing peace You would rest in me Dress ourselves in each other Brown and evergreen Are we in love Am I what you want Am I really someone that you Would ever want You are for me There's nothing more I'd need And every new encounter Will answer to your memory Lewis said the pain we have now is just the happiness The joy we'd held before So for me great pain you'll be because No one's ever given me so much joy before Ephemera Oh ephemera As long as our numbered days I would wait Yeah, if you would let me I would wait You're so beautiful You make me feel whole I want someone I want you To breathe my life into All I ever searched for Ever hoped for ever prayed for Has been found in you All I wouldn't give is the sum of the absence Within my mind of any thought of you Ephemera Oh ephemera Meet me in The very end We'll leave and fly off In opposite directions And I said I'd be okay And I thought that I was lying Until today You taught me how to love How to give myself How to really want someone for Nothing in return And if this is what it takes Then I won't beg you to stay And I'll be okay and I can walk away Ephemera Oh ephemera I see you in colors I see you in dreams I see you in what I love I see you where I want to be
