I want to tie today up in my hair
Want to collect the hours we still could dance for
A jam jar on my nightstand
Want to fly my soul like a kite
Want to see you walk through that doorway
And into this room
Where I am waiting for you
You like the sea

And how the sea began with a drop of sweat
Soaked into a cloud swiped across the brow of God
And how He wrung it out into sharp teeth to scales
And how the carnivore was born

And how He flung us forward into day and night
And how we floated down as if in hot air balloons
With our consciences like faulty landings

Our bodies, skin thin and desirable
How I desire you
Our bodies, skin thin and desirable
How I, how I desire you
