Even You and I
Lost worlds are swirling in your eyes
Looking towards the heavens were you’ll roam.
Are you ready for it now?
Are you waiting here just to go?
Well I will tell you little secrets
And I will whisper all the lovely truths to you.
I will tell you of the many ways that you can feel free.
We can talk in circles and go around the world
All the while never leaving this desperate space of mine.
You told me you would be gone before the day began
But there you were and dressed to kill.
Shall we, dear? Shall we celebrate our fall?
I will dance you to the end of love
I will dance you right up to that terrible sea.
Where the land meets the waters
And broken thoughts wash up on the shore.
Cut our throats on well-worn glass
And turn our eyes toward to the sky
For we will be going there some day.
I know we will dance there, even you and I.
