In The Shadow

As I stand in the shadow of you
I am waiting for something extra
Spectacular to happen
Something that has (never) happened before...
(I love you)
As you say with those deathly lips
Absurd as it may sound (I wait)
Because somewhere in that porcelain figure
You call a body
I know the truth
Deep in your gut (when you’re ready)
It will reveal itself
And when the time comes
I will (be ready)
Ready for the truth, that you have yet to say
I can tell (the time is coming near)
As you open your mouth to speak the truth...
(I love you)
