House of Stars
Oh, Daniel, take me by the hand,
And lead me to your house of stars.
In tree tops high, we'll touch the sky,
And tell our secrets, you who hide
And me to tell you everything.
You never saw another boy,
Nor girl, but only mother cruel
I don't know why you speak to me,
Nor why your mother tells you things
That never could be true, and you,
You are no demon, nor am I
An angel, but up with the stars
I think that I did wait to long.
And by the light of moon, you, I
Oh, we forget our truths and lies
Where we just be, not you and me
But sea and star and wane of moon.
And oh, we know, yea lord we know
Just everything there is to know:
The fall of hand and curve of hip,
The way the moonlight falls on skin,
The way we fit like always was.
You never saw another but
Tonight we see the sky.
