lyrics

I look for my horizon
And I find it in your eyes
Your smile is so unknowing, dear
It counters my disguise
If ever I needed a reason
To rebirth the hope I've known
You've given me that season
On your own

Met you one time
Knew you one time
Loved you one time

There never was beginning
You and I, we've always known these truths
They're stronger than the lust that flowers
And perfumes life with youth (stronger than youth)
There may be other worlds to sing in
But this one's where where you are
The bloom on this song would fade
Were you too far

Met you one time
Knew you one time
Loved you one time

Take all the gilt and plastic
Take all the instant pleasures
and toss them all away
Take all your airs and graces
Throw all that superficial bullshit
out today
Give me just the soft candle of your smile
In this world of hardened gray
And I will stay
Yeah, I will stay

Met you one time
Knew you one time
Loved you one time
