I didn't care
when you first
stared at me.
But as time went by
I started to realize
that I was the one
you were looking at.
I couldn't believe it
at first.
But as you didn't stop
I slowly started
to fall in love with you.
Every weekend I went to see you,
the staring dragged on further
as time went by.
I couldn't force myself
to speak to you
couldn't even bring myself
to say a simple word.
But then there was this day
when I went to see you again.
Everything seemed normal
You seemed to be staring
even longer.
So I decided to pull myself together
-and when you passed me
we both stopped.
Some seconds passed-
I felt
I didn't care
when you first
stared at me.
But as time went by
I started to realize
that I was the one
you were looking at.
I couldn't believe it
at first.
But as you didn't stop
I slowly started
to fall in love with you.
Every weekend I went to see you,
the staring dragged on further
as time went by.
I couldn't force myself
to speak to you
couldn't even bring myself
to say a simple word.
But then there was this day
when I went to see you again.
Everything seemed normal
You seemed to be staring
even longer.
So I decided to pull myself together
-and when you passed me
we both stopped.
Some seconds passed-
I felt
I walked a year last night
And wrote your name in the sand
And I couldn't help but smile when
the stars shone so bright
Reminding me of that dangerous glint
in your eye
It wasn't the first time I'd made
such a journey
But this time the shiver down my spine
wasn't from the cold
I was alone
Alone when you were so close
Yet set yourself so far
So I sit and watch the lights sparkle
in the faraway city
And try and guess which one belongs to you
And just like the waves will wash your
name from the sand
My tears will wash your kisses
from my cheeks
