Rough Design

a meeting of minds is what you said
a weight above your head
in the morning there's light in your room
you are a lighthouse for me now
i follow the beat inside your chest

and although we are far, we are closer than most

skin and bones and blood and stones
and gold and lace and men and mice
and plants and dirt and rocks and vines

a state of mind to intertwine
now love is blind
rough design but still sturdy

now we're on a boat to india
we're on our way to what we are
there's a humming that comes from my chest
follow the signal of my heart
follow the heat inside my breast

and although we are close, we remain who we are

skin and bones and blood and stones
and gold and lace and men and mice
and plants and dirt and rocks and vines

a state of mind to intertwine
now love is blind
a rough design but still sturdy
