A cliff, a tree overlooking the sea
Somehow arrive, somewhere I cannot climb
It's a mystery to me
Her silhouette is all I see
Who is this girl in the tree?
Who is this girl...
Spray-painted on my wall
In an awkward scrawl
“Life is for the living... love is for the giving”
Replete, bare feet
Smiling completely
Serene, sublime
Her eyes crystal starshine
She says, “you'll awaken when I count to three”
My mouth opens, and I try to scream
She says, “you'll awaken when I count to three”
My mouth opens, and I cry out
Spray-painted on my wall
In an awkward scrawl
“Life is for the living... love is for the giving”
Open my eyes,
the bedroom never lies
Four walls, a window
Dozing in the lampglow
Her hand on my neck breaks my reverie
Those eyes are smiling at me
Squeezing my hand, we leap from the tree
Two hearts flying to the sea
