Past Gravity

Love is a ghost in a room when she has turned away into the empty night
Love will make you wait to be found. It carries you home

On her island there is no horizon line
Only endless sea going up, becoming sky

Who is the shadow in the corner of her eye?
It speaks in a language of smoke and pale heavy air

It says: Lover, you are tired and falling, crawling
It says: Lover, you are alone in misery
For you are a blur, disconnected in memory
And everything you carry weighs on you like misery

She'd love to fly but the sky don't care
She'd love to fly but the sky won't hold her

From a great height, she falls past gravity
Through the blue of the sea
To the island she's made
She waits

The little girl wonder, like spring and all is splendor
Has caught a ride to yesterday
They've been shepherded on home
Lover, where have you gone?
Have you gone?
