We Were Wrong

On moonlit leaves
Of a leaning palm
Is an opening
Of a perfect song
In the steady calm
Of a midnight drive
With you by my side

And openin' up
My mind's eye
Leaves no desire
To be half alive
While I smile at life
And laugh at death

In the night
Weave a long light
Through the dark
Through the dark
By the dawn
Our love is in a song
We were wrong
We belong

The flicker of
The firelight
Makes time stand still
With you tonight
In a hush of peace
That I have never known

The sum of love
Is a firefly
Rising up
To find the night
And a face to picture
When we long for home

In the night
Weave a long light
Through the dark
Through the dark
By the dawn
Our love is in a song
We were wrong
We belong

Each moonlit palm
And midnight drive
And love song
Says that I am alive
And there with you
Even when I've turned
To dust

And open eyes
Have no desire
To be half alive
Or long for a lull in anxiousness
To smile at life
And laugh at death

In the night
Weave a long light
Through the dark
Through the dark
