if you’re looking for forever
i’ll take the batteries out of my clocks
so that we’ll be stuck inside this moment
as if time had really stopped
i'd tell u i love you every second except here seconds do not exist
so i’ll say i love you with each breath
with each smile, with each kiss
and when i die, u can crank your watch restart your clocks
begin the time and know that we were infinite
in the moment that you were mine

what do you do
when you both
love each other

but want different things

what do you do
when you both
crave light

but you want the sun
and he wants the moon
