|
the stars would know to send you the shivers |
|
and night would glow in the room in which you swim |
|
filled with breath of people making bird sounds |
|
and topless girls with pretty messy hair |
|
and swirling around is that swollen sound |
|
of horns all astrayed from some eternal parade |
|
i got fits and a fire in my belly |
|
and shiny lips can, fumbling, find a seal |
|
the water dear can touch you all over |
|
but nothing here can touch the way you feel |
|
this difficult and lovely story |
|
of your birth in the air and recovering from that |
|
youll hold me here until i can't afford your kindness |
|
youll hold me dear until i can't afford to leave |
|
while lightning real is leaning out and calling |
|
but there's all of that doubt plus all of that skin |
|
but all is grace and all is beauty |
|
and when all this is gone beauty will remain |
