the railway

[Verse 1]

Oh won’t you tell me a story tonight?

It seems your words will never run dry

I can’t understand where it’s all coming from

But it’s coming on… again

Oh won’t you tell me what’s on your mind?

As in, the images you’ve writ

I can’t begin to parse what I’m feeling here

But I might join in

[Chorus]

Descriptions of our love

Descriptions of your body

Running through my head

I’m running when you call me your girl

Terrifying gold

The forest where I saw you

Daughter of the wolf

In seconds I would call you… dad

[Verse 2]

When the wolf tells stories to me, I’m always sure to volunteer my paw

He taught me patiently, to hold his old quill, and I caught on

Laughter, in the evеning, passion at dawn, like writing songs

Belief, bеyond

I can’t ever begin to know, or convey the bliss of our poetry, our words unread

The passages a cradle set, the stanzas broad walls, a house we bled

Your shimmer stains my desert floor, I follow your breath, Star of Bethlehem

I’m a child again

[Chorus]

Descriptions of our love

Descriptions of your body

Running through my head

I’m running when you call me your girl

Terrifying gold

The forest where I saw you

Daughter of the wolf

In seconds I would call you… dad
