All I have is you*
When the day is done
All I have is you
When the morning comes
Over the city lights
They sink away
Satellites fall like rain
The night a flame
Light towers crashing down
A quiet sea
Slow motion clarity
Finally
Holding you
I will not forget
That grass grew here
That all the children wept
Holding you
I will not regret
That all this ends
And I’m alone with you
A tidal wave is rising
To wash it all away
An instant tells the story
We read it either way
In absence comes a shadow
All colors turn to grey
The final breath of vision
We watch it fade away
Holding you
my last memory
our crooked bodies
sing a melody
the ash and water mix
washes over me
the blood and soil mix
washes over me
you and i become
