Beloved

The late light of the desert made

The mountains a silhouette

As curved as a woman's side

As far off as I feel inside

This gravity that used to feel like fear

Pulls me to a new conclusion

The light of you is the weight that keeps me here

I wake up with my soul on fire

I'm swimming in my heart's desire not

Drowning in somebody's wake, not

Smiling for somebody's sake

Why don't you just stay here in the sun

Beats me why you disappear honey

Ain't I your beloved one

My beloved, my beloved, my beloved one

My beloved, my beloved, my beloved one

I see you blue eyed old and grey still

Up all night 'til break of day

You dance me across the kitchen floor

You still got one eye on the door

How you love me with

Them halfway eyes

And when I think there's nothing left

I think of love and all the time it buys

My beloved, my beloved, my beloved one

My beloved, my beloved, my beloved one

The late light of the desert made

The mountains a silhouette

As curved as a woman's side

As far off as I feel inside

The battle was hard fought but nobody won

I'll be your magnetic north baby

You be my beloved one

My beloved, my beloved, my beloved one

My beloved, my beloved, my beloved one
