Midnight.

At midnight

In this pale room

Your eyes meet mine

And I see it;

A falling future of ours

A rose upon your hair

And a cry within the air

We watch our children grow

And we also watch them go

Cause nothing lasts forever

But we got pretty close

And we see the world together

And do things we’d never dare

For if we were alone

Then we would both be scared

But here you are beside me

A soulmate, oh so rare

A lover who ensnared me

With eyes so bright with care

And your hand is tight in mine

As we marvel at the time

That has passed

Oh so fast

In this room

Now and past

is whole

And at last

I know

That that future

Is ours

Ours to become

And ours to make

In this room at midnight

It is ours

To take
