Carpe Diem

It's like a string that's trying to unravel
And like uncertainties of love and travel
Like the winter when the snow came falling down
And settled on the ground
And no one in the building even heard a sound

It's like that time I lived in New York City
All the lights alive at night, so pretty
The winter of our deconstructing love affair
And god, I swear that night at Lincoln Center started all of it

To take up all that space
To find my proper place
To look into my face
And say it straight
I love you so
I love you so

It's like the way a swing will keep on swinging
Long after you have gone, I keep on singing
And like my morning rendezvous at MoMa, never missing you
Passing all the windows on Fifth Avenue

To take up all that space
To find my proper place
To look into my face
And say it straight
I love you so
I love you so
I love you so
I love you so

I love you

It's like the way a garden keeps on growing
Long after sun descends, horizon, glowing
Or like the way a perfect piece of art
Will make me start a song or want to be a painter or an artist

It's like the way a star above keeps shining
After it explodes
And I'm here mining it for meaning
Saying, "Carpe Diem. Please forgive me"
"Carpe Diem, Please forgive me"
