-You move at the speed of light
tickle me as you pass.
I reach out to hold you
you’re no longer there.
And it’s all right;
I laugh.
Remember the funny face,
the one you gave me once
when we both stood still,
there was a moment there.
Now you’re off again,
moving, and I’m walking.
That moment wasn’t meant for us
and at your speed you’ll never find it,
never find me again
and I’m laughing
It’s kind of funny
you were always the one
with the down turned smile.
