Mind Drifts Away

Planets aligned on a weekday night Opens my mind, take a pause To observe what this moment is worth Open skies, take a drive, we can see what comes first The start of something good Or the end of something better Trying to decipher your intentions when you tell me That nothing lasts forever Overwhelmed, facing the simplicity We stand to lose by stealing this kiss My mind drifts away, temporary ignorance You're pulling me in to momentary bliss I'm sorry, but I'm seeing ghosts, and I can't think straight When I'm scared to be left all alone with them Though they're just in my head, their voices Remind me of everything I dread But I can see in your face, there's no turning back Though terrifying, there is some comfort in that I think of all the countless careless love affairs We could have had, but we settled on this My mind drifts away, temporary ignorance You're pulling me in to momentary bliss
