Admiration

Could you move in slow motion?
Everything goes by so fast
Just slow down a little
Save the best part for last

You speak in riddles,
Your intentions turn me on
I'm yours forever,
Will you love me when I'm gone?

When I'm gone, you're an unfenced fire
When I'm gone, over walls we trampled
When I'm gone, it's you I admire
When I'm gone, my living example

Your eyes are an undiscovered ocean far away
Any minute now keeping both poets and priests at bay

You don't get ahead of me,
Could we just this once see eye to eye?
What you offer has me,
Ask me how it feels to vie

To vie, your an unfenched fire
To vie, over walls we trembled
To vie, it's you I admire
To vie, my living example

It's a photograph discovered a decade after
It's a cannon blast disguised as a firecracker
It's enough to bring a brick wall to its knees and sing, please...

Could you move in slow motion?
Everything goes by so fast
Just slow down a little,
Save the best part for last

For last, you're an unfenced fire
For last, over walls we've trembled
For last, it's you I admire
For last, my living example, my living example

It's you I admire, my living example
