Glitter In the Air

Have you ever fed a lover with just your hands?

Close your eyes and trust it, just trust it

And have you ever thrown a fistful of glitter in the air?

Have you ever looked fear in the face

And said I just don't care?

And it's only half past the point of no return

The tip of the iceberg

And the sun before the burn

The thunder before the lightning

The breath before the phrase

Have you ever felt this way?

Have you ever hated yourself for staring at the phone?

Your whole life waiting on that ring to prove you're not alone

And have you ever been touched so gently you had to cry?

Have you ever invited a stranger to come inside?

And it's only half past the point of oblivion

The hourglass on the table

And the walk before the run

The breath before the kiss

The fear before the flames

Have you ever felt this way?

There you are, sitting in the garden

Clutching my coffee

Calling me sugar

You called me sugar

Have you ever held your breath and asked yourself

If it ever gets better than tonight?
