m'lover

would you be everything you wanted
in a lover and an accomplice
could you be her
would you feel
together and inebriated
enabling of a fable
we were never meant to be but
together

lovers

did you mean to misinterpret images
of our innocence and vestiges of virtue?

would you feel
pity for the masses?
we were adding and subtracting with
scandals that we made
together

I want say what lovers say to you
I want to feel what lovers feel with you
I want to do it with you
the songs that matter the way we used to do

I want to do what lovers do with you
I want to walk the edge of the earth with you
I want to say it to you the minute we feel the heat
would you be my lover
would you be my lover
would you be...

in my dream, we split apart the ocean
in a single heated motion
and we settled in agreement with glee

our dangerous liaisons and
clandestined creation myths
were fine with me

I want to do what lovers do with you
I want to walk the edge of the earth with you
I want to say it to you the minute we feel the heat
would you be my lover
would you be my lover
lover
would you be
I want to say what lovers say to you
I want to feel what lovers feel with you
I want to do it with you
the songs that matter the way we used to
