Parallel

I was just a pebble bouncing on your pond
I had no plan
You got my focus pinned
And you sat on the reed and silently watched
The world cradle in the wind
We shared a smoke on the balcony
While the snow was rolling in February spread our souls so thin
I said, It'll take a while before I'll be back again
And we carved the initials of our names
In the ice, and I was lost in warm rosewood eyes
My self-assurance was tossed under moody velvet skies

Now the loon cries a minor tale
And I'm doing the same
Cause nowadays thats' the only time I play
But once before our broken hearts, dreams and black tar stuck under
Our finger nails
I was always rushing I was bouncing towards the sea
And from your point of you
It must have been looking
Like I tried to flee
It was not the world
Not the city
Not the deep blue sea
That was swaying
It was always you
Don't you see I've been sleeping
On the brightest of days
Without a clue that the sun
Would melt the ice away
