I remember evenings when my dad would sing | |
Hiding in the hallways, I am listening | |
Keeping still my body until it’s borne aloft | |
Her hair is soft her breath is soft and her name is soft | |
And gather me completely in her sighing hands | |
My dove my dove my lamb | |
Born with ocean thunder underneath our veins | |
Lonelier than cows left standing in the rain | |
Holy when our weight into the waves is tossed | |
Though ships get lost and fish get lost and names get lost | |
She will wait to greet me where it meets dry land | |
My dove my dove my lamb | |
So. Careful of that language babe some words are stones | |
They’ll lead you out from town and leave you all alone | |
Past the mirrored diamond mares that run all night | |
Where camptown ladies sing that song ‘aw come aw wry’ | |
But lo they sing it sweetly so I’ll understand | |
My dove my dove my lamb | |
Though my sight be near and my way be long | |
Though the light I chase be disappeared by dawn | |
I have seen her standing on the roofs at night | |
I have seen her silver figure bathed and bright | |
And I have seen her sleeping in the cold white sand | |
My dove my dove my lamb | |
So even in these cities where she’s haunting me | |
Even when my weariness is wanting me | |
Even when my wickednesses want to breathe | |
Even in these dirty clubs counting 1-2-3 | |
I will keep a singing til I no more can | |
My dove my dove my lamb | |
And later if I’m better I’ll be born again | |
I’ll pull my newborn body from the thorns and limbs | |
Finding with my fingers where they’ve torn the page | |
From some ancient book all gold and worn from age | |
And writ upon it neatly though in trembling hand | |
My dove my dove my lamb | |
Then later in the evening I hear trumpets ring | |
I stretch out in the dark and I am listening | |
Studying the sadness in your perfect limbs | |
Move them under mine until they learn to blend | |
And I will keep repeating til they understand | |
My dove my dove my lamb |
