LESSONS OF LOSS

Well, I can't look back
On where we first met
To the broken end of night
When the nova blew
And the sun shone through
Like a martyr burning bright
Like a martyr burning bright

Can't unravel one
Of the gorgeous threads
In the tapestry of us
For the pigment's pure
And I know for sure
It would leave a lethal dust
It would leave a lethal dust

Love is a volcano
Let the lava flow
Love will set the landscape aglow
Love will shatter everything you know
Love will shatter everything you know

High upon a tower
In a meteor shower
Every nerve in my body seems to sigh
I can hear the creek
To the mountain speak
Sacred songs of you and I
Sacred songs of you and I

Hearts are open wide
Honey waits inside
Storm pipes flood love letters to the street
In graffiti skies
Sun-drunk butterflies
There is nectar everywhere we meet
There is nectar everywhere we meet

Love is a tornado
Let the whirlwind blow
Love will scatter seeds to and fro
Love will shatter everything you know
Love will shatter everything you know

Where deep calls to deep
Where the judges sleep
Where the mystery need never bow
Where our doubles dwell
In worlds parallel
We are making love right now
We are making love right now
