I sat down next to the color black
ran my fingers along the burnt path
take a prayer, take a moment
take a hand, oh I could hold it
only if you'd let me

with a mind full of golden
I thought I'd see you down the way
tripping on a river full of troubles
take a breath, take a second
your reflection, I could kiss it
only if you'd let me

open wide, my arms
glancing 'round, my eyes
smiling at you, my lips
my love, breaking free from my chest
could you believe it
with your eyes wide shut

where do they go,
when love moves across the winds to another?
where do they go
when love beats across the storms of another?

touching sky lines with the tip of your tongue
chasing you through the mountains
oh take a chance, take a heartbeat
take a picture, and let me see
you standing on the peak
only if you'd let me

where do they go
when loves creep along the sides of your heartstrings
where do they go
when loves sit atop of a sparrow's wings

drunken from a romantic rain
fell like nails to the flesh of my skin
refreshing like sweet sips after a drought
like your soft lips to my cheek
take a minute, take a gift
feel the romance and the rift
of me loving you all over again
where do they go?
only to make us all content again.
