when she walks too close
i feel her gravity pull me
into a fatal orbit
we crash into one another
it's something we must live with
first time we met we knew
no matter how far apart
no matter how long the absence
sometimes we go a year without
so much as a simple phone call
but nothing's ever simple
the complication is sweet
once when we intersected
the rush was intensified
the time went too fast and too slow
we were all that mattered
maybe someday we can put aside
our obsticles at the same time
and slow time down to a standstill
and learn to burn more slowly

Those fatal attractions can be hell to deal with when the person you're falling for is already in orbit with someone else. Yet that gravity keeps tugging away relentlessly.

Sorry, it just reminded me of impossible pasts. :wink:
