Alone Together

Can we be alone together?

So that I may have my secret solitudes

And follow my whims of the day

And you’ll be an arm’s reach away? 

So that I can show you the beauties I see

When I have drank in the world 

Until my heart is overflowing

And I have enough to give?

If I love you too much

It is the addictive feeling

Of ultimate freedom

That comes not at a cost

But at a gain

For I love you and you love me

Two wild creatures

Running to the beats of our own hearts
