Every night she'd come to me |
| [00:27.68] |
I'd cook for her, I'd pour her tea |
| [00:34.16] |
She was in her thirties then |
| [00:39.66] |
Had made some money, lived with men |
| [00:56.57] |
We'd lay us down to give and get |
| [01:01.82] |
Beneath the white mosquito net |
| [01:08.34] |
And since no counting had begun |
| [01:13.86] |
We lived a thousand years in one |
| [01:28.59] |
The candles burned |
| [01:34.67] |
The moon went down |
| [01:40.16] |
The polished hill |
| [01:45.49] |
The milky town |
| [01:50.22] |
Transparent, weightless, luminous |
| [02:01.25] |
Uncovering the two of us |
| [02:05.95] |
On that fundamental ground |
| [02:12.14] |
Where love's unwilled, unleashed, |
| [02:21.47] |
And half the perfect world is found |
| [02:38.37] |
The candles burned |
| [02:44.31] |
The moon went down |
| [02:49.60] |
The polished hill |
| [02:55.36] |
The milky town |
| [02:59.98] |
Transparent, weightless, luminous |
| [03:10.80] |
Uncovering the two of us |
| [03:15.24] |
On that fundamental ground |
| [03:21.34] |
Where love's unwilled, unleashed |
| [03:32.06] |
And half the perfect world is found |
