Long Enough

Two stars in the morning light
Waving soft goodbye to the night
Forever poking glitter in the sky
Set in time they shine like you and I

Two wolves out among the fray
Ever dependent on the rough terrain
Nestled close when December winds get too cold
It's a bit like us, you know

Don't make me think of when you'll be gone
When a whisper of love is left what comes beyond
Let you keep my secrets a lifetime through
But if I could get more than that I'd want to

Cuz we could sail the oceans one by one
Live between horizons like two lovers on the run
We could burn the flame until the wick is black and gone
Still it wouldn't be long enough, my love
It wouldn't be long enough

A history of touches led to pain
But you painted my scars gold til I glittered like champagne
Now look at me you turned my broken pieces to a plane
Always hated flying til you said my name

Cuz we could sail the oceans one by one
Live between horizons like two lovers on the run
We could burn the flame until the wick is black and gone
Still it wouldn't be long enough, my love
It wouldn't be long enough

And am I a sinner
For thinking it won't be the same
I know Heaven is better
But I only have right now to love you this way
And it pulls me apart and puts me back together
It's making me worse while it's making me better
Cuz I'm just a weak fool
Now that I love you

Cuz we could sail the oceans one by one
Live between horizons like two lovers on the run
We could burn the flame until the wick is black and gone
Still it wouldn't be long enough, my love
It wouldn't be long enough

Two stars in the morning light
Waving soft goodbye to the night
Forever poking glitter in the sky
Set in time they shine
