Inspired by the movie Titanic
****
From the top of a swirling staircase
I look down to a sea of blended faces
Searching for one in these deep dark waters
Is going to be a feat that I doubt I can conquer
Searching, Searching...
You're nowhere to be found
Baby, don't you know...
A moment with you
Would be a moment on a cloud?
But the clouds I want to catch
Never want to stay
I'm hoping that
This time it's different
In some way
So I can ride with you
On a cloud of cotton
And my time with you
Will never be forgotten
I'm holding you close now
Dancing in the moonlight
To a beautiful song
I feel your breath
Warm on my skin
You are calming my fears now
I hold locked within
As I stare in your eyes
I can feel what you're feeling
There's no use in concealing
The heart always knows
What the mind denies
So don't tell me different
Cause you'd be telling lies
I already know you love me
I can see through your disguise
