Exceptions

All things must always be as they are

Else from logic meaning would stray far

For what else is a flower but a flower?

And what is sixty minutes but an hour?

 

Cars pass by, and I know them to be cars

As I watch the stars that shine like stars

And I walk beside the road that is a road

It’s not too complicated an idea to decode

 

But maybe there are exceptions to the law

Your smile is the brightest sun that I ever saw

My love for you is the tallest tree that ever grew

My happiness is the highest bird that ever flew

 

So walking on ground, I feel I’m flying above

But love now I know to be naught but love
