Cup of Stars

When I escape this world of storm-- (I can, you know, in many ways) I'll leave behind (they say it's so) Just a body full of days. When I escape --go heaven-bound -- As easily as a tear is shed, I'll leave behind (they tell me so) Just a body on a bed. But oh, my Love a Devil struck You down, so after I had drunk my fill of life without You, I begged God, "Let an ocean-full of love for him who yearned for me, fill me to the brim! Then I'll quick escape This world of storm-- as a breath is breathed --so easily-- If only he can take my cup and dip it in the ocean waves that our Love, unquenched, will quick fill up and set his Spirit -- and mine-- free to sing a thousand days." So when I escape this world of storm-- (I can, you know, in many ways) I'll leave behind (they say it's so) Just a body full of days. And wen I escape --go heaven-bound -- As easily as a tear is shed, I'll leave behind (they tell me so) Just a body on a bed. But in the stars the universe is ours, my Love, and then together we'll drink deeply of Eternity again. for my lover, Lee Harvey Oswald falsely accused of killing John F.
