Your million sweetnesses are sometimes not enough To keep me laughing at the floodtide of desire This is how I walk when I have given up Do you see how free the body moves The bones inside the skin are loose And I know if I could see you That you'd be walking like this too
Marry a virgin Marry a not-a-vigin Marry someone who sold their sex to God or men Marry completely and give yourself whole-heartedly To everything that wants you and everything you are
I have spent time with unspoiled birds And genereous sunshine that taught me doing nothing And I do recall that my very best friends are The ones who left me empty and ready to be filled again
Your million sweetnesses are sometimes not enough To keep me laughing at the floodtide of desire This is how I walk when I have given up Do you see how free the body moves The bones inside the skin are loose And I know if I could see you That you'd be walking like this too
