Val Emmich - Separate Things

It was evident from the start
That we were the kind of pair
You could never part
(thirsty, burning)

Looking for danger and an ocean view
Trading security for eternal youth
But apparently that was just me

With the wind at our backs
And life in our eyes
And the loudest thunder blasting the sky
All was in place
Our time had arrived
When the words left your mouth:
'I don't want this kind of life…goodbye
You made me decide what was more vital
My love for you or a lifestyle
But that's the thing
