I’m learning how to be in love
With every passing day
The fireworks that fall about me
Dance my breathe away
And every time I try to grasp it,
For a second, try to last it
falls away, the last spark
drowned and suppressed in the dark
Your affection rains on me
Freckled electricity
It brushes me, it’s shocking
It rains on me, it’s locking
me into a world of starry daylight
Incandescent, wrong or right
It’s a fact the sun’s imploded
It’s a fact the stars are falling
But though I know the world’s exploding
I can’t help but singing, calling
Proclaiming your name to the skies
In the apocalypse dreams of suicide
For despite all the dying cries
I can’t help noticing
That it’s beautiful tonight
And though the moonlight’s dying
And though my life is done
I still can’t help my dreaming
That the world still has a sun
For I’m adrift in the ecstasy
That you’re the only one I love
