Hours / Ours
Only night
Darkens the hours until morning
Would it be uncivilized
Should we see it any different
In my life
I am seduced by a power
That has grown
Ever darker in those hours
Before light
Dreams will ripple in our sleeping
This will fade
In the hours as we waken
And I swear
These are moments to be furnished
Only fair
We can choose the way we use it
Hours
Have become the measure
Just
To be ours, mine, theirs, yours
Only night
Makes this vessel for our dreaming
Come daybreak we will realize
Light is there to show the difference
And I swear
Hours now become the measure
See us there
Counting back ward from a million
And I swear
Hours now become the measure
See us there
Counting back ward from a million
Only night
