Hearts of Fire Whispering kisses to the wind on a vague and sketchy night hearts of fire are gravedancing innocence wears a silken dress of white experience a suit of spades aces buried in his hand she has a complex pretzel beauty he yearns to understand And the promises of the past come back to stare you in the face a dim lightbulb of youth you can never replace hearts of fire drunk on romancing the air is a swirl of nervousness and perfume the aftershave armor falls away the moment she walks into the room the stars are cherubs coming out to play lovers promise to run forever inside each other and never tire hearts of fire hearts waltzing delicately across the wire of years that finds me wading through happy tears you are near hearts of fire burning on and on till after the sun disappears Still whispering kisses to the wind under a vague and sketchy moon hearts of fire are gravedancing innocence wears a tattered dress of blue experience a suit of hearts jokers bleeding in his hand she has an indescribable beauty he burns to understand someday he will understand someday... Hearts of fire burning on and on till after the sun disappears "I don't want my life to imitate art, I want my life to be art" - Carrie Fisher |
