The Velvet Teen
Parallel Universes
When the night has dawned my shadow
When the breathing slows and the mind lets go
When the light silently
Opens a door
Strike me like a match, be your flame
Share a cigarette and a glance telling
Falling in love while in lust still in
I bit down hard
Our love, like grains of sand
Held in the grip of an open hand
If in time scattered by the wind
We held too tight
Love never demands
Love never coerces
In a dream of each other
Parallel Universe
Underneath the trees and the rock
There burns a fire I'd long forgot
Like the sun hidden away
I feel you at my core
But you are not the piece I'm missin'
Neither broken nor in need of fixin'
The daughter[?] unspoken but unseen[?]
It is the point
Deliver us from our pregnant pause
No more pressing fragrant flowers
In the book of the sacred hours
That we still write
Love never demands
Love never coerces
In a dream of each other
Parallel Universe
Love never demands
Love never coerces
In a dream of each other
Parallel Universe
