Glitter In The Air

Have you ever fed a lover

With just your hands?

Closed your eyes and trusted

Just trusted?

Have you ever thrown

A fistful of glitter in the air?

Have you ever looked fear in the face

And said: I just don't care?

It's only half past the point of no return

The tip of the iceberg

The Sun before the burn

The thunder before the lightning

And the breath before the phrase

Have you ever felt this way?

Have you ever hated yourself for

Staring at the phone?

Your whole life waiting on the ring to prove

You're not alone?

Have you ever been touched so gently

You had to cry?

Have you ever invited a stranger to come inside?

It's only half past the point of oblivion

The hourglass on the table

The walk before the run

The breath before the kiss

And the fear before the flames

Have you ever felt this way?

La la la la la la la la

There you are

Sitting in the garden

Clutching my coffee

Calling me sugar

You called me sugar

Have you ever wished for

An endless night?

Lassoed the Moon and the stars

And pulled that rope tight?

Have you ever held your breath

And asked yourself

Will it ever get better than tonight?

Tonight
