Ardent Spring
Unknown under the same moon
As we went through the park at night
Day and Night have switched their sides
From locked to open ends
We were young that night
We went through the garden
Through the hole in the fence
And kisses like ardent spring
You tongue is thicker than mine
I know that now
You knew so many words
Each sound each line
Of my favorite books and my favorite songs
Tell me, how do you know them ?
Tell me, how do you know me so well?
Unknown under the same moon
As we went through the park at night
Day and Night have switched their sides
From locked to open ends
I’ve worn your words since then
I’ve put them on my body
They’re tight, they keep me warm
I’ll read them again and again
They make me warmer than I’ve ever been
I don’t want them to come off
I don’t want them to come off
Everyday I go back to that hole
I go into it and out of it and into it and out of it
Into it and out of it
Can’t find my way out of it again
I’ve lost my selfcontrol in it
I was good on my own
With you I’m better
Say I’m better
Unknown under the same moon
As we went through the park at night
Day and Night have switched their sides
From locked to open ends
