There’s a place

Where we were

Not long ago

There’s a place

It was hard

But it didn’t show

Back and forth

Tug and pull

Trying to make it right

Giving so much

But along every night

Then we met

It was odd

It took by surprise

For we could see

Something sad

Behind our smiling eyes

There was no control

In the midst

Of our complicated lives

There was no regret

As time reversed

Love dying on the vine

Together at last

Loneliness lost

Freedom from the past

Worth the cost

No more running fast

Our lines are forever crossed

The road was long

Time was slow

But we made the climb

To finding truth

And putting lies

Behind us in time

And no one knew

How really deep

The true love grew

It didn’t matter

It only changed

Our lines crossing to

Together at last

Loneliness lost

Freedom from the past

Worth the cost

No more running fast

Our lines are forever crossed

Lost in time

Where is the finish line?

Can we find

Those crossing lines?

Those crossing lines?

We had to step

Off the cliff

Of a broken past

Create a place

A new home

For the love to last

And every day

Every second

We share our eyes

Gives us hope

That we will never

Start asking each other why

Together at last

Loneliness lost

Freedom from the past

Worth the cost

No more running fast

Our lines are forever crossed
