Matt Costa - Jet Black Lake

When I first met you 
Swimming in a jet black lake 
When I first met you 
You were the swan 
A thin light shown through 
Green and blue 
You never spoke of leaving
One day you just flew 

In a night so vivid 
Over famous skies 
Over intersecting avenues 
And private drives
Over long deserted corners 
Of Franklin Square 
You never spoke of returning 
One day I just knew 

I knew where to find you 
Despite sleight of hand 
Despite the bad weather 
Despite the false starts 
Despite the marble statues 
That crumbled in my way
And though you look indifferent 
The feeling hasn't changed
