Andromeda

Andromeda
You dress in black, distant galaxy
You wrap me up suddenly, deep and strange
You move quickly, taking my breath away
Traveling your path of faith against the odds
A sudden explosion gave you a start
A vision of colors floods me, ignites me
Traveling your space that I carry in my mind
You leave me reflections that show my fate
Whoever discovered you didn’t know half
Of the essence that makes you unique
So special, original
It was the night, it was emotion, maybe my imagination
That in wanting to love you, only called you.
I look up at you, you seem so far
I wish I could just rip away the desire
You watch my steps from above, traveler
You’re in my skin, you’ve covered me in stars
Whoever discovered you didn’t know half
Of the essence that makes you unique
So special, original
It was the night, it was emotion, maybe my imagination
That in wanting to love you, only called you.
It was a spark, it was a mistake
Don’t ask me what I know
That when you were named Andromeda, it gave you...
It named you Andromeda, it named you Andromeda.
