Indeed I've Dreamt of Death, My Darling
Of death I’ve dreamt,
Indeed I have,
My darling dearest girl
Take a closer look,
Be sure...
For your choice can never be reversed
Would you wish sink this life you’ve known,
To the bottom of the sea,
Even if, beside your own,
It drowned your family?
And you,
Alone
Love’s a ship,
Built out of bricks.
It shouldn’t float,
And yet it does
If ever you feel your hands are stained,
Do not cower from the light,
Don’t hide away inside the dark.
Cause should you feel your hands are stained,
Well, we’ve such a miracle as soap
So next you feel your heart’s awoke,
Awoken, yes,
Though as an oak.
Heavy, rough, turned black with rot,
Know that mourning doves still fly.
With sea swept air,
And starstruck...
