Who set the moon on the mountain?
I was dying to see; I was crazy about it
when you line them both up on an August night
knee deep in the prairie, a grassland tide
I crash like the water that you won't find
here deep in my chest.
Everything you do is arousing
it's like you're reading my mind
there's nothing lucky about it
I waited four hours on a roof downtown
you said before time would heal this mess
you turn the tables and the lights down
I watch you undress
How much time?
I put your moon on the counter
I'm moving into and out of you like the waves in time
I pulled your dress all about you
I rock on my ankles while you recline
We fell through the door with our tongues untied
the window sings songs to the aimless night:
your screams and my breath
I watch you undress
I gave you my best
that night in my chest
How much time?

Share These Things

Looking out at the road when it's hot out
Seeing how the islands wave, seeing how the shoulders dip and sway
But when the rubber meets the road that's when you find out
Maybe you were made that way, maybe it was just a phase
I want to share these things with you (2x)
No matter what I do it isn't hard to choose
I want to share these things with you (2x)
I've got a blossoming mind and the gift of rhyme now let me
give my love to you
Checking the back of your arm I see written there a tatoo
A Rainer Rilke phrase; baby, I was Rainer Maria Rilke saved
But looking in the front of your face I see it written there in plain view
No ordinary blues. You've seen the depths of solitude
And your smile is an ivory pool with a love deep enough for me to
Share these things with you
I want to share these things with you
I know everybody does too and there ain't no use in denying that it's true
They want to see and be seen too
They want to know what their love is for, listen,
I can't hide it any more baby, I've got to love like a lion
There's a small stream running through these hills
There's a bead of moisture running down my window sill
In my heart there's a stream running too
I want to share that stream with you
I want to share these things with you
No matter what I do it isn't hard to choose
I want to share these things with you (2x)
I've got a blossoming mind and the gift of rhyme now let me
give my love to you
