Don't you wish that this could last forever?

a comet's tail, over there
that is where I'll take you someday
an eagle's nest, in the trees
feel the breeze that blows in all directions

stop and count the pebbles in the cove
another lazy afternoon you stole

and don’t you wish that this could last forever?

a fading trail ,a plastic train
a paper plane that was made for days like these
hiking boots, a walking stick
thinking quickly I turn to you and smile

forget the worries in your head
marvel over what you've said

and don’t you wish that this could last forever?
