Skin And Soft Hands
Sit softly in this chair this rain is about to begin
Your eyes shadowed and lean a soft mist clean welcomed falls
In the hard light framing buildings caress our sound our screams
This city has forgot its name its meaning is drowned and silent
This night is alike great birds
This night can outlast us
This night we shudder and grasp
This night we hurt nothing
Our clouds are druids a circle of friends
Frame for secrets
If you and I hold hands we can see the
Ocean where impossible happens
And if we kiss we've hiked miles to shelter
Just for this moment
The pavement is a devil underfoot a hot cat
That has no tail to stomp
This night we hurt nothing
Our fever is ours alone
This night we hurt nothing
We are inside each other
This night we hurt nothing
This soft rain makes you smile ecstatic
This night can outlast us
Can outgrasp us with its strong hands
