Very Far from Hell
Here let me hold your wrist
 and let me kiss your veins
 and rub my hand along your back 
 and blow away your strains
 Would you like to see the stars tonight?
 Instead of ceiling tile?
 For rain to kiss your collar bone
 you eyelids and your smile
 the universe caught in your eyelashes
 before you go back to bed
 to be stolen away for just one night
 i promise its not just in your head
 See? you feel my fingertips
 you know im really there
 you really feel the running now
 the wind current through your hair
 Don’t go home to cotton sheets
 Stay here forever, feling my skin
 they talk of meloncholy eternity
 not a world of light like the one we’re in
 it’s real it’s real it’s real it’s real
 if you can see and touch and smell
 we’re far from a heaven you could ever dream up
 but we are very far from hell
