She wanted to believe this rain was over.
She wanted to believe that this world wasn't cold,
But in this feeling she's been wading
& in this silence she believes
in the starlight she is bleeding-
it all fades out.
A strange territory this city has become,
A faded painting left behind.
in her eyes it's always been
And always it's in her smile.
Her breath on my neck I lie awake remembering-
leaves blowing around my feet.
& upon azure skies, I'll blaze her emerald gaze-
kiss the midnight stars for her
& breathe the shimmering world away
to rize in satellite.
Her eyes cast radiant guize-
Casting shadows upon the pavement
of my native Lincoln, Nebraska
where winds wash away her tears
to splash them upon my toes.
