I saw you today. For a moment, it was fleeting.
Our eyes didn't meet, and then you slipped away.
Your lyrical voice just keeps repeating
But I can never remember what you would say.

Each time this happens, you wear a mask.
But you remain timeless to the core.
Keeping me within sights is an unnerving task.
Dragging memories in my mind to the fore.

I shiver, and I could swear I felt you.
But each time I turn, you are never revealed.
Your hold is magnetic, it's twisting through.
Each time I forget, I again remember the ordeal.

Still being caught up in you isn't fair;
I don't want to get caught in your gravity.
I don't know how I would escape, or even if I would dare
Each time I think about it, I'm consumed by your intensity.

I wish you would walk away.
I wish you would let me be.
When you broke your promise to stay,
You forgot to break your gravity.

The flame of your touch burns.
It scars so no one else can see.
And to see you again, part of me yearns,
If only to beg to be set free.

My skin tingles at your teeth when those thoughts invade my mind
And how the marking is still there.
It's hard to break these ties, they bind.
And again, I claim you're unfair.

I saw you today. For a moment, it was fleeting.
Our eyes didn't meet, and then you slipped away.
Your lyrical voice just keeps repeating
But I can never remember what you would say.

But maybe it wasn't you.
My mind plays clever tricks too.
I turn a corner, and there you are,
Almost like twisted destiny.
Just this single glimpse from afar...

And once again, I'm caught up in your gravity.
