Admiration

Could you move in slow motion?

Everything goes by so fast

Just slow down a little

Save the best part for last

You speak in riddles,

Your intentions turn me on

I'm yours forever,

Will you love me when I'm gone?

When I'm gone, you're an unfenced fire

When I'm gone, over walls we trampled

When I'm gone, it's you I admire

When I'm gone, my living example

Your eyes are an undiscovered ocean far away

Any minute now keeping both poets and priests at bay

You don't get ahead of me,

Could we just this once see eye to eye?

What you offer has me,

Ask me how it feels to vie

To vie, your an unfenched fire

To vie, over walls we trembled

To vie, it's you I admire

To vie, my living example

It's a photograph discovered a decade after

It's a cannon blast disguised as a firecracker

It's enough to bring a brick wall to its knees and sing, please...

Could you move in slow motion?

Everything goes by so fast

Just slow down a little,

Save the best part for last

For last, you're an unfenced fire

For last, over walls we've trembled

For last, it's you I admire

For last, my living example, my living example

It's you I admire, my living example
