lyrics

Your eyes are sharp and innocent.
as we peel our clothing to the floor

My heart will race as I stand and wait
for this foreign beauty to unravel.

Finger tips across my cheek
that fall onto my collar.

With a sculptor's hands I uncover
the artistry of your skin.

With a crash our bodies wrap
we lie onto the floor
Your legs like vines twist into mine
your beauty falls around me.

Cover me my star in the dark tonight
your hip be the cup that pours your body into mine.
Speak in tongues our souls are one as we
breathe the breath of each other.

This world is cruel but I look at you
folded in my arms.

To feel this life cut by the knife
my hands could mend these scars

So peel your eyes and read my mind.
bite the round of your lip.

Break the bread and drink the wine
lay down our armor .
Like a puzzle piece you fit with me
and I long for single form.

Cover me my star in the dark tonight
your hip be the cup that pours your body into mine.
Speak in tongues our souls are one as we
breathe the breath of each other.
