Many Moons

Lyrics

You should go out and I'll stay in My engagements are unrelenting I feel as if my time's run out I think my clock, dear, is just resetting Oh, the winter it pulls me into its fire and I can't put out The seasons change your eye color Affecting how well you see me now I'm no particular poet I just gotta roll and figure out my line But when the wind starts to pick up I really like, I really like your hopes with mine here Talk to me long, I'll pull you out like a ribbon And wrap you around the base of a mountain The vessel that creeps round thе globe, round the spherе Is coming to see us the, the same time next year So speak to me strong, I know that you're scared to But you got to unfurl 'cause I have you just where I want you Laying on this strip of dry land Drawing all the lines your palm into the sand The feathers that you keep in a vase in my home Have made me a bird that'll never grow old Mix-and-match plumes for a patchwork dove Takes me off a-yearning for the age of my love And the time, it feels unsafe like an egg in a rose Just waiting in the center for its petals to unclose So I'll collect my years and you collect your feathers Many moons will only do us better
