Lifelong Fling

The moon blind-sided the sky again

As we grab loose ends of the tide and then

The slippery slide

You know I can't say when

I ever took a ride that could slap me this silly

With rolling joy

Lazy as sin

Lying up in heaving with my special friend

And the space he's in

It could make a girl grin

In the beginning of a lifelong fling

I wrote down a dream

Folded the note

Slipped in the pocket of my tattered coat

I wrote down a dream

In invisible ink

It never was mine I'm beginning to think

I wrote down a dream

What more could I do

I drew myself a picture and the picture was you

I wrote myself a riddle

I said, "What I wouldn't do

To give something good to a love like you"

The mood blind-sided the sky again

As we grab loose ends of the tide and then

The slippery slide

You know I can't say when

I ever took a ride that could slap me this silly

With rolling joy

Lazy as sin

Lying up in heaven with my special friend

And the space he's in

It could make a girl grin

In the beginning of a lifelong fling

I wrote down a dream

Folded the note

Passed it to you, stepped in our boat

Sailed round the world

Hoping to find

More than the sum of what we left behind

I wrote down a dream

But what was it now?

And why does it all feel so distant somehow?

Did I take too long?

Did I get it wrong?

You're still the missing line in my favorite song

The moon blind-sided the sky again

As we grab loose ends of the tide and then

The slippery slide

You know I can't say when

I ever took a ride that could slap me this silly

With rolling joy

Lazy as sin

Lying up in heaven with my special friend

And the space he's in

It could make a girl sing
