I never want to grow older, no-
Just wiser.
I want to drive until the horizon falls into the ocean,
I want to dance away everything that ever hurt,
I want to fall in love againandagainandagain.
There’s a sort of comfort that rakes across my scalp when the wind blows, and I never want to forget.

I never want to fall asleep, unless
It means waking up at the beginning of a new day every single time I open my eyes.
I want to walk in the rain with soaking shoes,
I want to sing while splashing in all the puddles,
I want to ride this rollercoaster until the city lights go dark.
Because this ride isn’t over yet, baby, so throw your hands up and scream.

I never want to be another face in the crowd,
Not when I could be a star or a flashbulb or a fire.
I want to laugh until it hurts without feeling silly,
I want to soak in the starlight on the rooftops,
I want to be so alight with life that it spills over my lashes and runs down my cheeks and I can’t stop smiling.
I’m never going to let this go.

I never want to go home, because I know
I’m already there.
I want to live so hard it lights up the sky,
I want to write our names in hours and snowflakes and wild raspberries.
I want to live forever, because I know memories aren’t quite permanent-
That’s why you can never stop making more.
