Glimpses of you

I catch a glimpse of you in a crowd
You? Can I be sure?
No second chances
Like a falling star
But it was you, I'm sure
Snapshot
That's all I've got

Half a block away
I'm dreaming
Of you
Waiting
...for you?
To walk through the door
Knowing you won't

So now
A metre away
I watch
And you are beautiful
My memory does you no justice
No where near
You swear more
Are older, and thinner
Been kissed more
But somehow, more beautiful

I reach out
And brush
Forehead, back of hand, brush
You will never know
(I know)

I wish I could stay
But the sun chases me away
And I flee
Back to half a block away
