The Kiss

lyrics by L.J. Van Konigsblauw

it came over like a fever dream
the nearness of you,
how could i think to breathe
you looked
into me then, i knew i was seen through

time slowed 'till it ran backward
and i couldn't speak,
as the whole age of the world
stretched out,
and layed itself at your feet -

and it was
bright
as the sun inside my face,
your breath.
one gesture simple and clean-
your heart under my hand,
no more, no less

you had nothing to prove to me
and it was in your kiss,
you wanted what i wanted too,
i believed it-
it came straight from your lips

what is it like for the dreamer,
the dream come to pass?
the will leaves the body on a breath -
sweet to find
that to know, i only ever had to ask

and it was
bright
as the sun inside my face,
your breath.
one gesture simple and clean-
your heart under my hand,
no more, no less

yes it was
bright
as the sun behind my eyes,
your breath.
no need to promise or question -
your moment and mine
no more, no less

yes it was
bright as the sun
(nothing hidden in your eyes)

and it was
bright as the sun
(no confession, no disguise)

you need to know it was
bright as the sun inside me then
your breath.
