lyrics

Two of us,
with the stars, the moon,
the dark ocean
We go rowing all alone
in familiar midnight chrome

Rippling,
the sea’s skin rolls and folds
I look into the eyes of you; black ice
as we go rowing all alone
in familiar midnight chrome
and down we go

Underneath,
where the little creatures breathe
I feel you in my sleep;
in my sleep, you breathe

Two of us,
with the stars, the moon,
the dark ocean
But in the morning,
I am one.
