Longing San Diego Love

Can I fast forward to when life gets good?
Where we walk the beach hand in hand
cheek to cheek, talking and walking
as if there was never a time where we were strangers?

Can I fast forward to when life gets good?
Where we whisper quietly among ourselves 
In galleries, concerts, and between the sheets?
As if we'd lived as one many lifetimes just like this?

Can I fast forward to when life gets good?
Where we both know without words
We love one another naked and raw
As if the darkness within us was always part of our lovable whole?

Can I fast forward to when life gets good?
Where you finally realize I see the whole you too?
That you've loved me all along
As if fear and doubt had never been in the way?

Can I fast forward to when life gets good?
Where our hearts no longer long and break
For time and distance brought us here, together
As if we'd been here to be found all along?
