Northern Downpour

If all our life is but a dream

Fantastic posing greed

Then we should feed our jewelry to the sea

For diamonds do appear to be,

Just like broken glass to me

And then she said she can't believe

Genius only comes along in storms of fabled foreign tongues

Tripping eyes and flooded lungs

Northern downpour sends its love

Hey moon, please forget to fall down

Hey moon, don’t you go down

Sugarcane in the easy morning

Weathervanes my one and lonely

The ink is running toward the page, it’s chasing off the days

Look back at both feet and that winding knee

I missed your skin when you were east

You clicked your heels and wished for me

Through playful lips made of yarn, that fragile Capricorn

Unraveled words like moths upon old scarves

I know the world’s a broken bone

But melt your headaches, call it home

Hey moon, please forget to fall down

Hey moon, don’t you go down

Sugarcane in the easy morning

Weathervanes my one and lonely

Sugarcane in the easy morning

Weathervanes my one and lonely

Sugarcane in the easy morning

Weathervanes my one and lonely

Sugarcane in the easy morning

Weathervanes my one and lonely

Sugarcane in the easy morning

Weathervanes my one and lonely

Sugarcane in the easy morning

Weathervanes my one and lonely

Sugarcane in the easy morning

Weathervanes my one and lonely

Sugarcane in the easy morning

Weathervanes my one and lonely

(You are at the top of my lungs)

(Drawn to the ones who never yawn)
