Her heart battle-scarred
From a long love affair
Seemed not long ago
It was sweet as a pear
One look through the looking glass
Her eyes
She could perceive past the past
So wise
Before the fall
Once heart began to rust
Fused with a magnet
Of some chemical lust enveloped in sadness
And would need so much polish and luster to rival
Her former self whom in this way resided
So deep within
Thinkin' 'bout the time
Sizzle of the kiss
Such a fine dish
Flavor of the love
Percolated crisp
Word to the whiz
Why did this end?
Now love like clockwork
Our magic gone south
Didn't get one in time
And found out the wrong route
'Tween seasons our love now seemed transient
Her light but an afterglow
Remnant
Of love constraints
So caught in the reins and the rapture
Rapture
Our mistakes bringing disaster
Faster
Than logic could manage to capture (capture)
But swiftly dispelled
We regained our strength
Thinkin' 'bout the kooky moments we would miss
We had no business actin' as if
Hadn't learned the lessons there was to learn
And now
Oh
