Greatest Common Denominator
Two of my steps equal three of yours.Four of my steps equal six of yours.Wouldn’t it be nice if we couldContinue on in this fashion forever?
“We think the same thingsAs the same times”Even if we were offered that kind of miracle for free,We wouldn’t need it.
Because there’s a reasonOur parents hid our heartsWhen they made us,So that’s why we...
We made sure of each other so that we wouldn’t forget,And tied together those nights that came close to disconnecting.We shared things with each other so that we wouldn’t overflow,And that’s why...
It’s not about what we give,And it’s not about forced intimacy,What I mean is, let’s just searchFor our greatest common denominator.
It’s not about forcing wordsUpon those feelings we can’t express,So I’ll wait until that dayWhen I’ll also understand...
Your heart is twice as big as mine;My pinky is twice as big as yours.The one thing I want you to understand for meIs that my desire to be loved is five times as great as yours.
Two seconds before the words“let’s break up,With tears on the otherside of your eyelashes,I apologized for the hundredth time that dayAnd, surprised, you laughed.
If there are 3 reasons to break up,I’ll find a hundred reasonsTo stay together.Ding dong, ding dong - surely!
We peeked into the pocket that was about to fall off,And stuffed in the feelings that were about to disappear.We survived the nights that were on the edge of crumblingTogether
The feelings I paint for you,The feelings you embrace for me,Even if I’m wrong,I don’t think they need to be one and the same.
It’s not about forcing ourselves to agreeTo the other’s feelings when we can’t comprehend,That’s right - let’s take themAs something to look forward to!
It’s not about what we want,And it’s not about adding forced meanings,What I mean is, let’s just search forOur greatest common denominator.
I’m me; you’re you.In the space between us,There must be limitlessCommon denominators just for us.
If you’re eight, then I’ll become two.If I’m ten, then you’ll become five.I wonder what you plus me equals?I wonder what me minus you equals?
It’s rainy, then clear, then cloudy;It’s me, then you, thenWhat I mean is,Let’s continue forever like this.
