I can't help it

You're the colour of the trees in autumn

You're the brisk and crisp air when the breeze breathes

You're the warmth of the sun in the depths of ocean cold

I can't help it

You're the colour of gold

Ambers

And tawny wolves' eyes

I won't admit it aloud

But I'm so scared that a breath of you

Could send me toppling back

Back to the beginning that we used to know

Share and live

But we don't breathe no more


I had fallen in love with summers

Fallen out of the winters

Stumbling through the cold

Racing towards the hearth

I had fallen in love with a boy with wolf eyes

Given excuses to be a part of the night

Listened to the butter of a guitar

Embraced in your hands as you fiddled and played

Played like the music was a lover


Your smile is like the moment of gold

An hour reserved for happiness alone

A time you only see when you don't expect to look

Never expect to see at all

I find I've lost far too much time

Wasted wallowing in empty minds alone

I will always find a moment to see that smile

And those wolf eyes

In a man's head
