We can keep a distance
we can follow the rules,
our time together is limited
by the actions of rare fools.
They are the ones who run the game
the moralists and societal drains
who judge
who manipulate
who travel upon their pearly gleams
to call out love now drawn disguise.
Perhaps if we find isolation
may it be our appreciation
might remind us of one time,
one time when love was sublime
Yeah, we have to wait maybe forever
Yet love everlasting … could be, together
