We Two Are a Moon

This song is a love letter to toss into the fire Wind comes through the window Faces carve into the hearth Find a soul and feel it Hearts have hidden rooms Sing with me to wrong gods Music isn't safe This love is a photograph of snow kept in a cloud We don't look for failure, but it's teaching us the world And its open kisses Mercy among stones Horses in the doorway Running out of rain And we all die of thirst We put family first The world can withhold so much beauty This life is a river rock to turn under your tongue Laughing rubs it smooth and crying turns it into a pearl Promise me tomorrow Fingers deep in green This well's full of water We two are a moon
