Nevermine

You showed me how
Showed me how to start a fire
We stayed awake watching it glow
Your breath lit up against the night sky
Never felt so pent up inside your coat

You told me about
Told me about the places you've gone to
And all the people you've seen

Has somebody uttered these words before?
Or are they just for me?

You brush the hair
Brush the hair from my face
Count the freckles on my nose

And somehow there is no more space between us
Only secrets nobody knows

You showed me how
Showed me how to start a fire
Now ashes cover the ground
I stayed awake to watch the sunrise
While you were sleeping sound

I watch your breath
Watch your breath rise and fall
Hoping one day you'll be mine to lose
