Astronaut

Come over to my house I'll pour some tea for us One sugar or two Your hand is right in front of me Your finger fragilely Holy on my side Faster than an astronaut Who's coming home to what He left long ago I've made this brand new bed for you I trust the things we do Holy or not Open the gate 'cause you're already late At the end of the lane Is a glass of lemonade Keep on the path When you hear the laugh In the white of her palm is your heart I'll be brave for a while I won't bring you down Any more than you are I'll be brave for a while I won't bring you down Any more than you are Please, be my baby Don't mean maybe or not Look out the window There's a bright yellow cat Please, be my baby Don't mean maybe or not
