lyrics

She laughs out loud, the joke that I just told,
Made no sense unless your mind’s inclined to work that way.
Like dividing 17 into 72. What’s the point in doing that you ask?
Just something that I’d like you to do.

Starlight moves so slow from world to world.
Not like these thoughts spring up fully formed inside my mind.
She feels almost before I form the words.
These silent declarations, I spill into her ears.

Counting on her like I do,
To sit her quietly and think it through, and I do.

Her simple acts of kindness, a balm upon my soul,
And so I asked her what part of me she thought of as her own?

No hesitation... She indicates my heart. On and on
She goes, she knows.

Counting on her like I do,
To sit her quietly and think it through.
Be forewarned, she storms, it’s true,
But still she sees it through.
