lyrics

I caught it in glimpses
A glint of light
Out of the corners of her eyes
It shined on me for the briefest moment
Made me capsize
Tried to hold it, hold it tight
As if I could make it crystallize

I saw her face
It had opened wide
And then she looked away
She was there, then she was gone
She had looked away

I caught it in glimpses
A flicker of sunlight
And a thrill I’d never known
It shot through me like a photon
Sheared through my heart of stone
I felt her spirit, I felt her love
I felt her deep down in my bone

And I am thankful, oh so thankful
Thankful for what we had
I am grateful, oh so grateful
But in the end I’m more than a little sad

I caught it in glimpses
Nearly had to squint
Or I just might have missed it
She had a mouth, so full and milky
Oh how I wish I could have kissed it
If she turned back just for a moment
There’s no way I could resist it
