Terrestrial

from Slow Thinker by Noralyn

lyrics

I would paint your likeness with oils on canvas
If I thought that would make you last.

I would write your future - Just a short description-
If my words would come to pass

Cos you, you're like a flame that I can't handle
And you, you're like a breeze that blows away

Oh beautiful terrestrial
How? How? How to keep a hold of you?

Time, it ruins all my hopes for you
As you waltz on your own winding path

And though you come back to me, I can feel you drifting
Just as soon as I sweep away the dust

Oh you. You're like a stone, I can't see into
And you, you're like a current I can't change

Oh beautiful terrestrial
How? How? How to keep a hold of you?
I want to wrap you up safe in the clouds
But you've got your world always pulling you down
So how? How to keep a hold of you?

A brief fascination
I had with the thought
Of cutting my ties and giving you up
But the apathy shattered cos it was a hoax
My perennial

Beautiful terrestrial
How? How? how to keep a hold of you?
I want to wrap you up safe in the clouds

But you've got your world always pulling you down
So how? How to keep a hold of you

How? How?
How to keep a hold ---
How? How?
Beautiful terrestrial.
