Ever After Never

Verse 1:

I touch the shadow of your light,

You burn, I bite,

We spin.

I flee the warmth you leave behind,

Yet crave the spark that blinds.

Chorus:

Round and round,

A circle we cannot break.

Push, pull,

The ache we make.

Near, far,

Forever apart,

I chase the fire

That lives in your heart.

Verse 2:

I whisper close, you pull away,

A game that lasts beyond the day.

I lure, I tease, I wound, I burn,

And always, always, I return.

Chorus:

Round and round,

A circle we cannot break.

Push, pull,

The ache we make.

Near, far,

Forever apart,

I chase the fire

That lives in your heart.

Bridge (whispered, slow, teasing):

I am the dark that hums your name,

You are the spark I cannot claim.

We twist, we turn,

We wound, we learn,

A thousand years of touch denied,

Yet always, always, side by side.

Outro (fade, hypnotic):

Spin me close,

Then let me fall,

I am yours

And yet not at all.

Around we go,

A cruel delight,

Ever after, never,

Forever tonight.
