lyrics

The bookshelves were lined with a thousand
worries and fears from the past
but here we were, hoping that, because of each other,
all that shit would fade out fast
...fade at last...
the stone was cast....

and now I ask no more
questions. It's you that I adore.
So please, whisper once more
everything I need to hear

between the shelves
of Dickenson and Yeats
the words rush through the floodgates
and how much longer will we have to wait
to make up all the time lost in three years

in the bookstore my dear

Shall I compare you to a midsummer night's dream?
What's in a name but what it seems?
A valediction forbidding good morning
at the divergence in a yellow wood heed the warning
to the virgins to make the best of times
and the worst of rhymes
between doctor seuss and mothergoose
and what is truth
but lonely lies
and firy eyes
and fire and ice
will not suffice

and now I ask you to follow me
blindly through what is and is not to be
come and allow us both to see
glimpses of love and deepest fear

under the spells
of Goodfellow and Queen Mab
to taste of passion and truly be saved
the sweet thrill within these sour waves
of the nuances and tones inside of your ears
in the bookstore my dear
