Tethered - Arch / Matheos

Indelibly into my heart

Inscribed your love a lifetime ago

Still all so near and so far away

Seems like forever and a day

And one by one I will climb the stars

Up to the heavens where you are

To hear you whisper again

Till then our love remains ethereal

And I don’t want to sleep

I can’t bear another awakening, dawn breaking my heart

You said what’s meant to be will always find away

But it wasn’t meant to be this way

We touched the flames of infatuation

Till incantations of the sirens brought the rains

Our entangled flaws tethered us together

The warm glow of the embers still remain

You and i lying under the evergreens

Sunbeams breaking through to kiss your face

Snow laden boughs, mare’s tails and silhouette clouds

The cirrus canvas disappears before our eyes

Such is life

What the universe unveiled

In the same breath it rescinded and too it all away

I’m afraid that in trying to forget

It’s really letting go and I could never

I pray for truth, for light, and for the way

There’s nothing to behold since you want away

There once was a fool that said time heals all wounds

But I believe forever is too soon

The horizon kissed the sun goodbye

As the tides of a dream

Pulled me back to the shallows

Mesmerizing tangerine skies fade away

And I don’t want to sleep

I can’t bear another awakening, dawn breaking my heart

You said what’s meant to be will always find away

But it wasn’t meant to be this way

To this hallowed ground

Your tears of stardust rain ethereal

Till I find my way to you

Our love remains ethereal

We touched the flames of infatuation

Till incantations of the sirens brought the rains

Our entangled flaws tethered us together

The warm glow of the embers will always remain

Till then our love remains ethereal
