when you ate I saw your eyelashes saw them shake like wind on rushes in the corn field when she called me moths surround me - thought they'd drown me
and I miss your precious heart
dried rose petal, redbrown circles framed your eyes and stained your knuckles
and all those lonely nights down by the river brought me bread and water (water, in) but though I tried so hard my little darling I couldn't keep the night from coming in
and all those lonely nights down by the river I was brought my bread and water by the kith and the kin now in the quiet hour when I am sleepin' I cannot keep the night from comin' in
why've you gone away? gone away again? I'll sleep through the rest of my days if you've gone away again
can you hear me? will you listen? don't come near me, don't go missing in the lissome light of evening: help me, Cosmia; I'm grieving
and all those lonely nights down by the river brought me bread and water (water, in) but though I tried so hard my little darling I couldn't keep the night from coming in
and all those lonely nights down by the river I was brought my bread and water by the kith and the kin now in the quiet hour when I am sleepin' I cannot keep the night from comin' in
beneath the porch light we've all been circling beat our dust hearts, singe our flour wings but in the corner, something is happening! wild Cosmia, what have you seen?
water were your limbs, and the fire was her hair and then the moonlight caught your eye, and you rose through the air well, if you've seen true light, then this is my prayer: will you call me when you get there?
and I miss your precious heart; and miss, and miss, and miss, & miss, & miss, & miss, & miss, & miss your heart but release your precious heart to its feast, for precious heartsTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
