How many times must the world revolve,
Before someone makes a stop in your life?
How many pieces does the jigsaw puzzle have,
To put together a portrait of your shattered heart?
How many hourglasses have been overturned,
Before broken lovers become completely familiar strangers?
How many bottomless pits must we stumble on,
For us to make a stand on our relationships?
How many voice messages must one leave,
For two to have a chat of a thousand and one nights?
How many rosy shells does it take,
To fit the whole world of a sky?
How many paper cranes must be folded,
To build a bridge for you and I?
How many sleepless nights must one spend,
To never see the light of day?
How many cans of pain will it take,
To cover up the Lovers Mural that we both created?
How many stars does it take to fit my universe,
Before I become part of your world?
How many?
But who's counting really?
