lyrics

Park the car beside the lake tonight
Silver bodies in the silver light
The moon is rising in the east tonight
Everything's going to be all right

You read to me from Merrill's "Changing Light":
"Our heads are spinning...from the East a light."
Everything's going to be all right.
I don't believe that, but I think you might.

I want to be like the water that light passes through.
A heart so simple and so pure that the world can't undo.
And all the love that I have I will give to you.
A million miles form a dying star straight to you.

You made a sketch of St. Suplice at night.
You said you only dream in black and white
And God is watching from a satellite.
Everything is going to be all right.

I played you "Green" and "Gardening at Night".
You said "I like a man who's erudite,
but not pretentious and not too uptight".
Everything is going to be all right.

I want to be like the water that light passes through.
A heart so simple and so pure that the world can't undo.
And all the love that I have I will give to you.
A million miles form a dying star straight to you.
