In the morning, the sound
Of your breath wakes me up
Like a wind inside me;
Your night and mine
Open out the day.
The scent of your hair,
The smile that’s slipping out of you
Are wide open windows that
Let the sun go inside me.
When you take my hands
In those skies of yours
I don’t know where I am,
The light falls between us,
You and me.
The love in the morning,
Liquor of your body,
Is water that falls.
There’s your voice in mine
And it resounds everywhere.
The fire of your lips,
The honey of your skin:
I am hungry and you
Are bread for me.
When you take my hands
In those skies of yours
I don’t know where I am,
The light falls between us,
You and me.
When you take my hands
In those skies of yours
I don’t know where I am,
The light falls between us,
You and me.
(When my hands clasp yours
I don’t know where I am and the light falls between us)
