Luna comes to me in a dream

lyrics

The thoughts that I have looked for
Are in a lamp on the floor
Drifting slow into sunrise morning glow
She came to me that night for
I had nothing but my life
And a pocket watch that never would be sold

"I have all the powers of the moon at my feet to set your mind free
The waking light will tell you all you need, oh baby, just sleep."

I went out catching fireflies
For the stars are more elusive
And they burn holes in my pockets, don't ya know?
I contemplated my demise
And she looked at me and smiled
Singing, "Where, then, do you think you will go?"
"The swirl of our eternity has secrets for me
And you, as well, to learn its majesty
I'm tired, too, to lift all the light you see
But it's warm in its comfort, and it's brighter in its mystery."
