It's 2 AM

And I know

I should send you home

...but

you live three hours away

in the mountains

with snow

what if you crashed?

and this became our first

and only date

I can't risk it

Nope

Not now

so...

It's 2 AM

And I know

You shouldn't stay

...but

I've got a spare futon

in this room

out here

and I swear I can sleep

alone for another night

it's only been

too many

Nope

It's okay

so...

It's 2 AM

And I know

You'll leave tomorrow

...but

I don't have anyplace

I'd rather go

or be

and if you don't get up

right away at dawn

or if you

pull me

Nope

I'm weak

so...

It's not 2 AM

I don't know

what time it really is

...but

laying here beside you

with these arms

around me

I honestly don't care

about the time

the day

or the hour

Nope

I'm where

I always wanted to be.

it’s four-eleven am

and he calls me to ask if he

can pick me up to take

me to see one of my favorites

things, i can’t say no

it’s four fifty-two am

and im sitting in his car

watching him drive up the hill

because “the sunrise looks

best from this point of view”

it’s five-twenty one am

and im listening to him talk

about his hopes and dreams

and how he wants me to

be apart of them

it’s six-eighteen am

and he watches my face

while i talk about why i favor

sunrises so much, his

fingers dance with my own

and i think this is love

Everything I've ever wanted sits right in front of me,

I listen as your perfect heart beats so imperfectly.

You're pure ecstasy, my personal remedy.

When we're together, I'm happy as I could be.

With you life just seems so easy.

No matter what we go through, I always want to be with you.

Even when the skies aren't so blue, I hope I always have you.

Things may not always be perfect, and I know we may have conflict.

But my feelings for you, they'll always be true.

Together we'll make the climb,

I want it to be us until the end of time.

Even when we're 103, I'll still hope it's just you and me.
