looking up

you walked inside the crowded room
i met your eyes; what more to lose?
i'd already lost my mind
my heart was next in line

i looked at you through blackened lashes
saw your soul and turned to ashes

your smile lit the room
though we were stranded in the gloom
of times before, that didn't happen

i looked at you through blackened lashes
saw your soul and turned to ashes

you kept my gaze
and i kept yours
just a boy and just a girl

i looked at you through blackened lashes
saw your soul and turned to ashes
you took a breath, i saw you decide
and then you dove into my eyes
