Sweet Darling

There's something on your mind,

I can see it in your eyes,

In the way that you look at me.

Whatever's on your mind, sweet darling,

Undress that thought gently,

Let it shake itself free.

There's something in your chest,

Making you breathe all heavy,

Like the Moon breathes against the Sea.

Whatever you got in your chest, sweet darling,

I got that same thing beating,

Against all the cages They built me.

Let's spend a slow forever.

Within these four walls,

Under the light of a bashful Moon.

I'm on my way to your apartment.

There's a little traffic but I promise,

I'll be there very soon.

We'll banish all the bad things to the gloom,

We'll light four candles and fall into,

The dancing shadows in your little room.

There's something on my mind.

I wish I knew the words to hold it.

But they disappear when I look at you.
Standing there dappled in light,

Haloed in shadow, beautiful as the song,

I've never heard before except in you.

Hold me closer than forgiveness,

Lay me down in arms of liquid.

Drown me in your midnight dew.

Let our story have it's ending,

Let be born again anew.

Let it dance like new tongues of fire,

In the dwindling spaces between me and you.
