The winters mar the Earth It´s floored with frozen glass You slip into my arms And you quickly correct yourself Your freezing speech bubbles
Seem to hold your words aloft I want the smoky clouds of laughter To swim about me forever more
I will race you to the waterside And from the edge of Ireland shout out loud So they could hear it in America It´s all for you
The shells crack under our shoes Like punctuation points The planets bend between us A hundred million suns and stars The sea filled in this silence Before you sank those words And now even in the darkness I can see how happy you are
I will race you to the waterside And from the edge of Ireland shout out loud So they could hear it in a America It´s all for you
