Lightning in a Jar

I could love you forever  
The way you look to me right now  
Though beauty and time seem passing things  
The way the world goes round  

And tho' all is lost and spins away  
Love deepens in the heart of forever  
Not confined to the shade of passing day  
As if love was bound to some known measure  
 
That passion ascendant that reaches for stars  
That feeling that stops you right where you are  
That knows no distance either near or far  
That seems to captures lightning in a jar  
 
I hope you feel it too
Baby, I love you
