“CLOSER THAN ATOMS” 18 November 2003

In our homes
One sun rises as one sun sets
Lonely but not alone
And free from regrets
Mistakes were made
People came together
People fall away

Love is strange
But that is loves way
We once said together
Played a part until death
My lover, my friend

We stare at the same skies
No longer alone
We sleep in our dreams
We love in time zones
Only one chance in this life
To make it real
To live in beauty

Closer than atoms
Closer to heaven.

This is how life goes
This is how love grows
A beautiful life
With you.
