Max Richter – On The Nature of Daylight

When I kissed you it was as if my lips had known yours for years, your touch was home

Only after did my mind enjoy the flashes of those first moments in disbelief.

I gave you what you wanted, I lavished for days before knowing it would come.

The excitement that I went crazy for would be reality.

How long I kept a tight leash on my emotions for you.

I can’t count how many times you asked

Did you really think I didn’t want to

You made it clear what you decided

You did nothing but confuse me,

but not so hard to figure out

I knew nothing but that I wanted you

I had waited so many years for you knowing would never come

You then were gone, your choice…

I had to move on, its not my fault I waited too long for you already.

I couldn’t have asked for anything more with you

You gave me more than I desired for what I’ve done to you

Did I kiss you for myself or yours?

God knew it was that moment or never,

I had you for one night, that’s all I needed.

It was more than enough

Did you kiss me for you or me?

I see two sides of you, there is no in between
