Maybe I saw you last night laughing…

Maybe… maybe I saw you last night, laughing, in the rain
maybe… maybe, just for an instant, our eyes met, and our hearts clapped as we embraced
maybe… maybe, I told you that I loved you, that I couldn’t stand the thought of not being with you, that when I smiled, you smiled too
when I reached our to you, you reached out to me too
maybe… maybe, if for a moment, nothing else mattered, our troubles were meaningless, the whole world stopped to watch us embrace
our lips touching like they knew exactly what to do, never forgetting that soft touch
and maybe… maybe I needed you to be my life, my soul light, my guide to finding eternal happiness
as my pulse races, my brain can’t react fast enough, we kiss.

maybe… maybe we said some things we shouldn’t have
maybe we did some things we shouldn’t, acting on impulse instead of feelings
when I left, you left too
when I told you I lied, you told me you lied too
when I cried, you cried too

maybe… maybe, someday, when I’m ready, lonely, searching, looking out my window at the cool, clear, falling rain I will see you once again – laughing
