lyrics

It was our last supper on a terrace laced in finery on a wanton sea;
Sweet perfumed petals warmed a creaking bed
Of northern whittled wood for a Caribbean gem...
It was good…
And all that I could see
Was mirrored in her dark eyes blinking
The lamps across the port,
I knew what she was thinking
Her mouth agape
Undulating kisses from the outcrop of the cape...
They were good...
The night stretched its fingers across the door
And gripped the pillow, that’s what it’s there for...
And in a quiet, newly-formed beatitude,
What we were making, we were making good...
Sheltered from a worldly gloom, we spent the night and shared a room,
I swear I saw from just beyond the bed
The Holy Ghost ascending...
