That Place Where I Go

10/08/2008

That place where I go
When you smile at me
Let's build a summer
Home there.
It's warm and it's free
We won't have to worry
It has everything
We could hope for.
The days melt easily
Into nights so that we
Can just lay together
And watch.
Your arms around me
This is where I'll be
The place where I go
When you smile at me.
The sunsets serene,
Colours we've never seen
Let's paint all our rooms
Those colours.
The golds and the greens
The blues, tangerines,
Soft yellow fading
On our windows.
We'll lay on the ground
Not making a sound
Watching light wash over
Our intertwined bodies.
Laying there, so softly,
This is where I'll be
The place where I go
When you smile at me.
It's not far from town
But there's no one around
Close enough to ever
Disturb us.
We live right by the shore,
We keep finding more
Reasons for loving
Each other.
We'll lay on the sand,
Won't ask or demand,
How lucky we are
To have found this.
But as quiet as I can be,
I'll ask myself quietly,
What I did to deserve
To end up here.
And you'll kiss me where we lie,
Hand in hand, side by side,
Walk back to the home
We have made.
Your smile, I'll see,
I'll stay here, here I'll be,
This place where I go,
When you smile at me.
