you were my first love
now you're in africa
under the same stars
gravity binds us above
i am mythology
learning my lessons through time
cursed with eternity
counting to forty-nine
god could not erase
this never-ending chase
fate put faith in you and me
sans a silver lining
every opportunity
always lost on timing
all my love sits poised to be within you
paused in a state of to be continued
i forget yesterday
but your scent's a time machine
now you're in africa
our chance remains to be seen
