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 That’s all that I want, darling That’s 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 You’d lie, womblike And in your arms I’d 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 That’s all that I want, darling That’s all that I want, darling
