Complex hearts

A clear blue sky, a bright autumn sun 

The summers adventure fading into dust

What does the journey seek to become

Where could the road turn, where could it lead 

Where could the couple be in dreams 

 

The girl imperfect with eyes like fire 

The guy devoted, his heart to open 

The couple are together, but still kept apart 

By fear of loss and what could pass 

By duty, lost love and time gone past 

 

They know in peace they love each other 

But to admit so much could put them on the road 

The girl, a princess without an equal 

He wants to take her, make her life so special 

A life which will always will be bathed in love 

 

He wants so much to hear her ask him

To know she wants to be on the road 

To hear just once the girl say her heart is his 

He waits like Paris, foolish, reckless 

And as he waits his heart stands still
