For Four Months

For Four Months

for those four months I had it all,

it was all or nothing,

it was all and then nothing.

it made my heart sing

it made my heart fly

it was never forever

it was... here have the world...

swiftly followed by goodbye

it was magic

it was tragic

it was standing on a mountain top

then a fucking monumental drop

it was dangerous

it was riotous

it was me and you

it was them and us

it was the most addictive ecstasy

then freezing my nuts off through cold turkey

it was church doorways

it was alleyways

it was under street lights

in the middle of the night

it was snowy fields

it was so fucking hot

would it last 

we both knew it would not

it was other peoples houses

it was various hotels

in the moment it was heaven

when the end came it was hell

it was holding on so tight

it all just felt so right

it was 'ain't life grand'

it was, 'don't give a damn'

from the start it was damned

I was blessed to be here

I was touched by your presence dear

it was laughter 

it was smiles

it was so much fun

it was relax don't do it when you want to come

then it was gone

it was forty six going on twenty

it was a wild serenity

it was getting plenty

then running on empty

it was being someone

it was reaching for the sun

it was getting to number one

then being no one with no one

regrets... I have had more than a few

certainly far too many to mention

but my life's been well worth living

as you gave me intimate attention

showed me how good things could be

a world full of joy and vibrancy

all in glorious HD

you gave me the opportunity

to be the man I always wanted to be

a star in my own movie

you moved me

truly

without any endeavour

I will love you forever

you were the sweetest of treats

I would have died for you in a heartbeat

you had me enthralled

then everything stalled...

but reaching that high

was well worth the fall

for those four months, well... I just had it all
