Innocent Vigilant Ordinary

"oh, no," i said

i think about the times

the way you smile at me

and how we always kiss

and how we drank the sun

and killed the night

and fought the sleep and won

and how we left it all unmade

it was only once

now there's more than one

no, there's only one

now there's more than one

you're the only one

you're the only one

you're the only one

it's good to see

that you are doing well

and well enough to be

laughing here with me

'cause what we did

there's no excuse for it

you know i love you so

and it hurts to know what i did

it was only once

i want you to know

that i will always love you

and always be your friend

and never leave you again

the past is past us now

so we can go

and we can move ahead

i hope this letter gets read

if just only once
