"While We're Here and Hazy"
by Max PhineasI'd give you the world off my shoulders
But you know it spins so fast
I can't slow it down long enough to breathe in time with you
And I know my footsteps
are always two steps behind you
But when the shadows disappear in sunlight
I know just where to find you
But you know I'm shy like hell is hot
So let me just remind you-
While it's late and my love is punch-drunk
And my mind is like a helium balloon
-That I just think you're beautiful... 12/09/2008 Author's Note: Dear, you. From, me.
