Music: Florence + The Machine - Cosmic Love
and I saw only your light
Your words captivated me
caught me
and pulled me from a pain I knew too well
into dreams that flew me to my greatest heights
then to my lowest, deepest, most longing depths
In my darkest dreams, you were mine
I stepped into your brightest fire
and you saw only a hint of my light and the great shadow it cast
I captivated you
by being the perfect illusion
I was yours every night, in your every dream
In your shadows, and the darkest spaces of my mind
we held each other too closely
But here, where those dreams are always chosen away
here in real life
I walk past you
and you past me
without a look or faintest interest

Dreams of Shadows
You stepped out from my darkest shadowsand I saw only your light
Your words captivated me
caught me
and pulled me from a pain I knew too well
into dreams that flew me to my greatest heights
then to my lowest, deepest, most longing depths
In my darkest dreams, you were mine
I stepped into your brightest fire
and you saw only a hint of my light and the great shadow it cast
I captivated you
by being the perfect illusion
I was yours every night, in your every dream
In your shadows, and the darkest spaces of my mind
we held each other too closely
But here, where those dreams are always chosen away
here in real life
I walk past you
and you past me
without a look or faintest interest
