A Visitor Never Forgotten
Passion is a foreign exchange student
In the boarding school of my mind
She danced through the gates
Swayed through the halls
Told me things
I'll always recall
Passion is the lover
That I feel like I've always known
It's the way that she gets me
All the way down to the bone
She laughs, she cries
She blossoms inside
And I hope that she'll never know despair
Never hurt beyond repair.
Passion is the flower
She tucks behind my ear
Passion knows no bounds
Always there to hear
Her energy is limitless
Unlike her time
Her laughter is the sweetest sound
One I hope she'll never repress.
Passion is the reason I live
In a world polluted and falling
Her arms became my home
Her voice my only calling
Passion is a foreign exchange student
In the boarding school of my mind.
I want her to stay
Even though I know
She has to go away
For the summer
I know she'll go back
To the sweet serenity that is
Someone else's head
To someone happy instead
