Of all the million galaxies
How did we arrive in these,
Small bodies small lives
From the double helix of space and time?
I'm feeling deep again,
It's getting late, and I've had too much to drink!
Take me home, I'll follow you
We'll tumble from this midnight bar
What I'm really trying to say is
It's good we came here
Assumed these bodies from light years away
Now I'm weightless with you
In this dark house we're dancing slow
To all this ragged jazz
On the midnight radio
Did you see the wind,
Under the hawk's wing today?
Black feathers spiraling
Higher and higher against the grey, against the grey
Your being in my bones
Is doing the same
Spinning dizzy, reeling circles
Breathing my gravity away, oh away
Now I'm weightless with you
Floating towards morning
A stillness just this side of expectancy
It's enough to be alive in this rain and fire
And I, I love the summer
August thunderstorms
Cooking big dinners with the food we have grown
It's another kind of elemental making love
Now I'm weightless with you
Floating towards the morning
A stillness just this side of so much desire
Just a dragonfly, just a mountain fire
Weightless with you
Floating towards the morning
Windows thrown wide
And the air tastes damp of green things tonight
Of all the million galaxies
how did we arrive in these.
Small bodies small lives
Warm hands tonight
Of all the million galaxies
Of all ... of all
