it's late & i miss u (Quietus' Greatest Hits)

By Quietus





Here on this lonely Earth,  
Moonlight electrifies the sky.
I’m enveloped in blue, 
And the whole world seems to shift.

 
You are the warmth of a summer’s day, 
I am the cold mist of morning.
I’m all yours,
Bound with a single kiss.


Hold me close and tell me you’re forever,
Even if you don’t love me.
It's okay to pretend,
A million times.

Author's Note:

I saw this contest and thought it was brilliant. I'm surprised I was able to piece this together, but it was really fun to do.
