Stolen Moments

Every time we speak

Our words betray intentions

Insincere inventions

That never quite reach the heart

So we turn the other cheek

And gather our defenses

Again, rebuild the fences

That just been keeping us apart.



Waiting out the worst

We keep the best inside us

In hopes our hearts can't hide us

In hopes our tears don't show

And you know we're not the first

To try and breach the distance

And though we meet resistance

The love between us grows.



And in the time it takes us

To look beyond the lies

We could be sailing through

Each other's eyes

And in those stolen moments

When love is caught off guard

We see it never had to be

This hard.



Every time we speak

Our words betray intentions

Insincere inventions

That never quite reach the heart

So we turn the other cheek

And gather our defenses

Again, rebuild the fences

That just been keeping us apart.



And in the time it takes us

To look beyond the lies

We could be sailing through

Each other's eyes

And in those stolen moments

When love is caught off guard

We see it never had to be

This hard.
