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
