your handwriting
in the first few minutes of the midnight
staring out at the frost-kissed ground
you come up behind me and entwine your fingers in my hair
then you slowly lead me down
how does one live life never knowing such fire?
to be not only living but alive
the heated writhing thrill of releasing it in another
to see that abandon in their eyes
if it were pitch black and you didn't move
or breathe, I would still know you were there
we're part of each other now - I feel your stirrings in my blood
and my heart as open as the air
as the air
delineate your realm with kisses
and etch your promises with tears
inscribe me with your secret missives
and take me as the first few bright stars appear
well, there's a storm inside that's breaking
above it all on high we're gliding
in moonlight's shining no mistaking
a goddess' words in your handwriting
a goddess' words in your handwriting
well, somewhere deep inside I used to fear this
and now I hope this love will never fade
I find you parading through the rambling chapters of my dreams
unmaking the barriers I've made
as a new day steals into this bedroom
lying here with you sleeping by my side
take care not to wake you as I trace the outlines of your face
on the dawn side of night's great divide
great divide
delineate your realm with kisses
and etch your promises with tears
inscribe me with your secret missives
and take me as the evening's first few bright stars appear
well, there's a storm inside that's breaking
above it all on high we're gliding
in moonlight's shining no mistaking
a goddess' words in your handwriting
a goddess' words in your handwriting
a goddess' words in your handwriting
