Flash backward to the time
Your silhouette disguised
The glow of night's reflection
ย
Your outline locked in phase
Like a vivid, liquid haze
Lit up the night electric
ย
A moment staged for us
Until we turn to dust
Until time's evaporated
ย
But were we ever there
Enraptured, unaware?
We were lovers only dreaming
We dared eternity and won
Long before the rain had come
We built a universe
We held a cosmos in our hands
Unstoppable force, the purest light
To set the firmament alight
We built a universe
So we could hold the cosmos in our hands
ย
The switch turned to engage
The power rushed and raged
Lit up your face electric
ย
Lightspeed in a dream
The static bursts, the stream
The ultrasonic strains of music
ย
Revived in youth again
With each step as we claim
Shattered mirrors in the rainfall
ย
But were we ever there
Enraptured, unaware?
We were lovers only dreaming
ย
We dared eternity and won
Long before the rain had come
We built a universe
We held a cosmos in our hands
Unstoppable force, the purest light
To set the firmament alight
We built a universe
So we could hold the cosmos in our hands
