I loved her for the sun
Shinning down on everyone
She was floating in the wind
That stormed the beach and let her in
And she'd stand
Cold and naked
Let the rain
Cross her face
She let it be me
Who'd follow her
When no one was around
A searchlight over the marsh
Where she ran
She told me the ground
That swallowed her
Guided as she walked
Would be resting here in my arms
If I'd leave
So I loved her finally
She broke the dam and flood the sea
And on the bridges that would lead me
I'd kneel and pray under her dome
For all the ways
I'd been unfaithful
And all the ways
That she would hide
She let it be me
Who'd follow her
When no one was around
A searchlight over the marsh
Where she ran
She told me the ground
That swallowed her
Guided s she walked
Would be resting here in my arms
If I'd leave
There's a light
Across the border
That only shines
Inside my chest
