once in late day /

i let myself go / 

i laid on your heavy chest / 

felt my heart beat in the air / 

i wished you never fade /

once in early summer /

the nights became less and more lonely / 

i opened my locked soul / 

yearned for you to take me / 

and the silence of reason /

gently invited me in / 

once in a warm darkness /

the only light was you / 

you slowly sink back / 

under the sea /

i saw sailors pulling you out / 

once it was skin on skin / 

you wished to let go /

and still you held me / 

motionless and without words /

struck in the burning of change /

once heavy in the moonlight /

do you remember the blue? / 

the relentless of goodbye / 

maybe i have you only /

only for a quick hello /

once again we prayed and drank /

and drove each other to the end / 

i had you /

like butter and marmelade /

stuck on my fingers /

everything i touch /

turns into you /

once you touched every part of me /

i turned into a memory / 

breathing little bits of you /

i find you even in the smoke /

even in the ash /

once you set me on fire /

i didn't want to escape / 

i didn't search for an exit wound /

and there were many.
