If We Knew...

You would not be so scared
Of losing hair and slowing down
If you knew that our hearts are not aging
Our little hearts are born already ancient

It would not be so tough
To say "I do" and settle down
If we knew that our hearts never go dating
They'd stay at home for us
Patiently waiting

We would not be afraid
Of eating love and lying down
If we knew that mountains would be unveiling

We would not be so stubborn
Being swallowed by the ground
If we knew greater bodies still were waiting
Dotted lines in the air tomorrow morning...
