|
Met on the shore on a rainy dawn in late November, |
|
'Speak not a word,' was what you wrote to me. |
|
Shoes soaked in sand and a heavy coat around your shoulder, |
|
Bird in a hand was what you gave to me. |
|
You stood so strong and the waves beyond were rollin' over, |
|
Pullin' me close like the moon pulls on the sea. |
|
I wanna ride on a road that turns a thousand corners -- |
|
Two beams of light, one for you and me. |
|
House in the hills and inside the sound of nervous laughter, |
|
Your body of stone that I touch until it turns to water |
|
Was revealed to me. |
|
I long to touch your tender skin of alabaster -- |
|
Shoulders as white as the peaks beyond the sea. |
|
Arms in your arms and soon the room is spinning faster, |
|
Eyes in your eyes are the only thing I see. |
|
Love you so much so the only thing that you'll remember |
|
Is what it's like to be in love with me. |
