Less was more

Take me back to happiness

Starry nights and cramped up spaces

We were lesser but we were more

Take me back to craziness

The kind of crazy loveliness

We were stupid but we were more

Turn around, the pages of our history

The part we never thought would be

When we were lesser but we were more

Come around to a new possibility

Forgiveness is for eternity

And be more than the lesser people we’ve become to be

As I watch you watching me

And you see me watching you

Afraid to cross the great divide

And drowning in our places

The places where we stand

Would you reach out if I reached out to you

If I walked over closer to, the remnants of you

Or would you still be scared of saying I love you

And holding tight to the loneliness you insist for you

and me
