about

A sign, a shooting star. Phone in hand, I dial. 555-4945. She answers.

We both know the risk. We both know this isn’t the end of the story. But if we are smart about it, then this may be the beginning of a new chapter. We try to learn from the past, and we take each others hand towards a new start.

lyrics

Taking this risk, like taking a dive in the ocean
Battling heart and mind for a solid emotion
But, like the sea, security’s not what you crave
Finding a partner to join in the ocean to ride the wave

Once we were tepid and shy, and maybe not much has changed
But still we find strength to step out into discord and strange
Thought I had lost you in barely the blink of an eye
Glad I looked up to see something amiss in the cold dark sky

Nervous and terrified, trying to find words that are clear
Yet we find comfort in knowing the other is near
Starlight and shooting stars, cold frost that covers the land
But there’s no need to carry me down this long road if you take my hand

Take my hand
We’ll crack the icy grass together
Understand
We’ll still be in for stormy weather
It’s not the end
We will not pretend
But if we are smart
Then it might be the start.
