[spoken:] we'll just try that again. |
|
the sun was coming up, and our friend was sound asleep. |
|
but we saw through the window, that the water ran so deep, |
|
that you couldn't make out, the ocean floor, |
|
then I saw you in the light. I couldn't take it any more. |
|
give me your hand. |
|
give me everything you've got. |
|
and the light from window will fall on us burning hot, |
|
just like a torch. |
|
the air was humid; I will not forget. |
|
when we stepped outside, I hear your footsteps. |
|
now in my mind, it's a soft sound, |
|
almost imperceptible, against the giving ground. |
|
let me kiss your eyelids with my lips. |
|
let me feel the heat coming off your fingertips, |
|
just like a torch. |
