In other words or, well, lyrics…
“Oh, the sun is surely sinking down
But the moon is slowly rising
So this old world must still be spinning round
And I still love you
So close your eyes
You can close your eyes, it's alright
I don't know no love songs
I can't sing the blues anymore
Oh but I can sing this song
You can sing this song when I'm gone
It won't be long before another day
We gonna have a good time
And no one's gonna take that time away
You can stay as long as you like.”
— James Taylor, You Can Close Your Eyes
“I've seen stars reborn in your eyes
Sky's on fire tonight
One life is never long enough
One life is never long enough
At last call, turn out the lights
I hope I treated you right
One life is never long enough for us
Too many people walk around with hearts hidin'
Terrified of hurtin', so they stay silent
Don't know what it's worth just to let a light in
Through the shade
If love had come to me, I wouldn't recognise it
Now every time you smile, it's a little priceless
No story I could weave would have ended like this
No way
All your troubles, all your pain
Let me struggle, carry that weight
All your devils fall away
You're so easy to love.”
— Dermot Kennedy, One Life

Laura and Zach joke that time is too linear a way to define their love.
Some days it feels like they’re just warming up. And others it feels like they’ve been singing this song together for all of time.
They’re best friends, true loves, and partners in life. Let the adventure continue…
And they’re still writing their story…
