The Pursuit of Sappyness

Opting for a walk with an ocean view Another three blocks from the hotel room Going slow 'cause we know this moment will soon have to end Sidetracked by the clear night sky Watching all the stars dancing in your eyes So it goes our woes like our toes buried deep in the sand Moments fade to memories just waiting to be summoned by a sound or a scent For right now I'm doing all I can So come in close cuz I've got one for you Watch me take these strings and make time stand still Could I borrow your loneliness for my next act I'll make it disappear and won't bring it back It's no illusion, dear I swear It's that magic we were made to share The Atlantic's spell put us in a dream Drowning out the sound of reality's scream Try to find what's inside tracing lines in the palm of your hand When all words' meaning seem to take a walk Our bodies take over and do all the talk So alive tonight I'll confide every thought in my head Moments fade to memories just waiting to be summoned by a sound or scent For right now I'm doing what I can So come in close cuz I've got one for you Watch me take these strings and make time stand still Could I borrow your loneliness for my next act I'll make it disappear and won't give it back It's no illusion dear I swear It's that magic we were made to share Deception is one thing I could never hone I'm forgetting what it's like to be alone We no longer have to fear the unknown Cause your adept with a little magic of your own My insecurities gone Now my covers blown You turned my heart into a hand grenade ready to explode So come in close cuz I've got one for you Watch me take these strings and make time stand still Could I borrow your loneliness for my next act I'll make it disappear and won't give it back It's no illusion dear I swear It's that magic we were made to share We won't shake this Please don't wake us Make this moment last forever All I need now is for your warm embrace To take me back here from any time or place And somehow we could stay this way forever
