said it so quickly,
they didn't waste a word
every syllable falling from the sky
for second so certain
just they and God heard
all the breath in a lifetime
all the goodbyes, the hellos
the remember-mes, the forget-me-nots
the that's-just-the-way-it-goes

remembered so briefly
in that moment spared
so we both could see
so we both could be
just a little less scared
of all we promise to be
and all we just won't hear
all we never had, all the good, the bad
all that makes us oh so clear, so

Soontime will come
to bind two to one
Soontime will know
know you when it comes

soon, Soontime soon
