Come Stay

et répète les demi-vérités

Of nights waning through distance 
where hidden breezes lie in still
glances fall out a painted window
eyes wonder but they never will

Kiss the moonbeams of a thousand angels
float along in sudden flight
tender dreams wrapped in silken starlight
feeling free in a pristine light

Fly to me on wistful trade winds
let your hair fall to the way
close your mind to frightful vision
in my touch, with me, come stay

Embrace my suffrage in gilded gold
shine for the world to steal
write your heart upon my prison
I long, with you, to feel

Don't repeat what I can't hear
my tears have all dripped away
tame the truth with gentle guidance
and in your words I'll lay
