I've had the fortune
To wake after a bad dream
A dream of desertion
And find you laying asleep next to me
And I said 'I am a box of crockery'
And you said 'I am cargo which threatens to disappoint'
I have laid in your arms; you have laid in my arms
There is no woman here
Take good care of me
I have been deceived
As far as I can see
It's a clear night for you and me
Moonbathing
We lay on the cut grass, and looked up at the stars
And yes, it was June
And yes, there was a moon
And I realised where that idealism comes from
And I said, 'they are not stars at all, they are satellites
And I feel cheated'
And you laughed
I have seen you nervous; you have seen me fragile
There is no woman here
Take good care of me
I have been deceived
As far as I can see
It's a clear night for you and me
So I say, 'I'll take good care of you
If you will let me through'
And as much as I can choose
It's a clear night for you and me
Moonbathing
