Does it really matter
How deep the river flows
How high the mountains rise above the sea
If time were just a razor's edge
Frozen into ryme
I'd still feel you lying next to me

I still see you in the morning
Before I open my eyes
I hold you in the silence of my storm
Was it really yesterday
Or was it just a dream
Coming back to break the light of dawn

I can still remember
How I learned to smile
Every time you chased away the rain
I put on my masquerade
If only for a while
With nothing left to loose its all the same

So here we are
Right where we were again
Just two lost sailors
Searching for the wind
I'll write my love stories and pretend
What goes around won't come around again

I liked this. At first I thought you were kind of putting down poetry, for some reason. But then it seemed that you were trying to talk serious with more reality instead of fantasy.......

Knowing me, I've probably got your ideas all wrong?
