Dark Roman Wine

I will hang on the hook of your splendor

As the night rolls us up in its arms

And the square of your thumbs and your fingers

Is the blanket of sky that's so warmI know it's late but I can't help but thinking

That the day hasn't shown all its cards

Now it's out to the stars or the ocean

Let's not retrace our steps to the carPicking out all the stars that we like

Between finger and thumb

You laugh as you pass me the night

As if it's too fragile to holdAnd I hold it so close to my chest

With your hands in my hands

You say this is just how we'll rest

Until land turns to sandNow your eyelids they faint and they shiver

Like the wings of the last bird to leave

For the south, for the heat, for no reason

I watch as they fly for sheer joyThe wind shakes the branches above us

And the cars shake the ground at our backs

But the dark roman wine in our bloodstreams

Makes the cold just a word, just a soundPicking out all the stars that we like

Between finger and thumb

You laugh as you pass me the night

As if it's too fragile to holdAnd I hold it so close to my chest

With your hands in my hands

You say this is just how we'll rest

Until the land turns to sand
