Reaching For The Moon, Lizz Wright
The moon and you appear to be
So near and yet so far from me
And here am I on a night in June
Reaching for the moon and you
I wonder if we'll ever meet
My song of love is incomplete
I'm just the words, looking for the tune

Reaching for the moon and you
I'm just the words, looking for the tune
Reaching for the moon and you
maybe it is true
is it me
who slept out
between galaxies
on an isle of void
like on a strangely
woven cloud,
was it me
curled and entwined
filling with sound
and the energies
of light
and secret dark
or was it
a dragon dreaming
before waking
shooting stars
to tickle
water and earth
with cosmic fire
and mercurial breath
or was it you
who embraced me
naked and shivering
close with your heart
or was it
the wind whispering
in my stillness
to be born at night
where i am
sleepwalking
without words
as forever
thrown out
of heaven
maybe a messenger
looking for you
maybe
it is true.
