lyrics

My right shoulder is where they kiss me
In an embrace they lower their chins
And press their lips against my skin
But they can't know how many there were before
Or how many there still seem to be

So began an ardent tango of a harmony
Notes resolving into a tune
The tide always in love with the moon
The force to pull each other back to earth
And I forget that I am always the stormy sea

Why couldn't you have known
That I was worth more than morning?

Now here you lie beside me in this humid space
I know that you could set free
This tiger clawing to get out of me
But instead you choose not to mention my name
As something that could lead you back to grace

I am not afraid
Of love that turns to fade
Only that this animal might run
Leaving me nothing but existence
