triassic love song

This morning I emerged

Onto wet earth

It had been raining

And while it had been raining

You and I we had been lying

And while we had been lying

In the warmth we had been falling

Into slumber with the thunder overhead

In the cave we laid down

To the rain sounds

On your window

Intermingled with the blood-rush

Of our love flush in our sinew

Sleep joined us in the lamplight

As a fire in a campsite

But we set no-one to watch

With our guard down

What a lovely hiding place

That you have made

To delay our parting

What a world outside

To keep each other safe from

Thats all that I want darling

Thats all that I want darling

You hold me in the burrow

Your brow furrowed in your dreaming

And at the time the flood comes

And our blood runs

Cold and bleeding

Youd lie womblike

And in your arms

Id cease my breathing

With broken ribs

And one last kiss

I would die here warm

What a lovely hiding place

That you have made

To delay our parting

What a world outside

To keep each other safe from

Thats all that I want darling

Thats all that I want darling
