A Secret I
Alone and I can see the moonlight and starlight
As they plant kisses on my dreams and thoughts
In moments passing by me
And the sound of laughing voices as they call me so softly
"Come a little closer, darling, won't you?
And love me a little while"
And, if it seems your whole life is spent blooming, it's a miracle
But it could happen
I used to think death was just a ending, not a starting up
But then a friend of mine, a man
He up and died one Tuesday
Now, he lives inside of me and all his other friends
And we welcome him into ourselves
In a way that makes us more like him
It's friendly gravity we're pulling on
And the white moon told me it was so
Alone and I will love the moonlight
A little more these days
As they plant kisses on my dreams and thoughts
In moments passing by me
And the sound of laughing voices as they call me so softly
"Come a little closer, darling, won't you?
And love me a little while"
And, if it seems your whole life is spent blooming, it's a miracle
But it could happen
I used to think death was just a ending, not a starting up
But then a friend of mine, a man
He up and died one Tuesday
Now, he lives inside of me and all his other friends
And we welcome him into ourselves
In a way that makes us more like him
It's friendly gravity we're pulling on
And the white moon told me it was so
Alone and I will love the moonlight
A little more these days
