Ruefully I smile Tuck some hair behind my ear And shake it out again My moods change so often As the boy beside me constantly reminds me
Sometimes light filters through my eyes And I see A world filled with songs and the deep chords of love Then it turns To a world so scarred I can hardly look away Refuse to wipe the window pane, saying "This world looks better to me behind A frosted filigree, That hides the bitter ugliness from me."
And then I see you I humor myself by imagining you feel the same I watch you laugh and your eyes fill with light Then you're gone Inside your mind and your pages and your thick dark hair
Maybe one day We can catch each other dancing in the light Before we drift into shadow Maybe one day We can see our smiles through a clear pane Maybe one day (Am i crazy?) We can fly through the shafts of day And then Maybe we'll understand
