last nite we ran away again
to the sea cooled sands
and sighing palms
we danced to a melodic moon
in a jasmine-scented june
and we lay on a flower pressed bed
where i whorshipped you at your alter
this morning i woke with an empty hand
why'd you leave before me
tonite we'll run away again

boo


war said boo
and peace did run
disease stood there laughing
plague just smiled
and famine winked
and death started counting
and the fat lady
on the corner
started to sing

once


once i wore a shimmering cloak
now all is hid by shimmering smoke
my winds they cough,my seas they boke
and all my living creatures choke

once i had a gleaming eye
now all is hid by a poisonous sky
my earth is bleached,my plants they die
and all my living creatures cry

once i the clearest tears did cry
now all is hid by a sulphurous dye
my rivers reek,my forest fry
and all my living creatures die

once i had the purest soil
now all is hid by leaking oil
my mountains crumble,my lakes they boil
and all my living creatures toil

once i had the richest crust
now all is hid by refuge rust
my valleys are full,my lands are dust
and all my living creatures lost

there was a girl
who was my love
who cried a tear
that turned to a dove

that took to the air
above golden flowers
and cried a lament
for i was not hers

she cried and she cried
til its feathers turned black
because her true love
would not come back

she cried another
of salty black
that turned to a hawk
with a spur on its back

that took to the air
and killed the black dove
and ripped it apart
and cursed her true love

not on a wind swept hillside
not on a sun parched raft
not in sun scorched desert
not on a cold dead ice floe
but in a barren empty bed
thats the loneliest place
on earth

we lay together
our hearts in rhyme
i was yours, you were mine
all the planets were in line
all the stars flashed the sign
that this was surely the time

true love sparked into being
that this was the purest we were seeing
aphrodite knelt and wept
at the love that we felt
she cried a lake around her feet
on seeing true love so sweet
hoping she would sometime meet
that special someone to make her life complete

the wind was friendly ,warm
soft as a lovers lips
light as a babys touch
invisible as loves beauty
i feel her and know shes there
she smells fresh and delicate
feels of passions first touch
light and seductive
gliding down my skin
making circling motions on the back of my neck
gentle folding my hair back around her fingers
she brushed my cheek,tugged my sleeve
and ran chattering into the trees
i heard her laughing among the dry leaves
i saw her chasing them
and how i wished i was a leaf
she flirted with the starlings
lifting them up with her caressing air
only to leave them there
and how i wished i was a starling
she tossed and teased and played catch
with the long grass
and how i wished i was a blade of grass
im full of love
the very wind , ive fallen in love with
the day darkends and i loose sight of her
but i feel her all around
and as i entered my house
i swore, she kissed me
and whispered goodnight
and then i was glad
i was me

please sit awhile
and watch a puddle form
sit another while
and watch it evaporate
watch a flower
turn its head to the sun
eye the course of a butterfly
let your ear run after bird song
let your nose kiss
long at the rose
and let you taste
long at love

i search ,i dream
i dream of she
with blue-jean eyes
white t- shirt smiles
guinness dark hair
mind of a cut string kite
