My heart beats faster It's too soon each time Nothing more than flies But I love you too much

Are morals bigger than mortals? But I hate what I leave behind Full mouths, empty pockets Full egos, empty spirits Full buildings, empty homes

I want to write a love song A little more than I ever felt A little less than eternity But love is what love does

If you could just give…
