moments between sleep, late at night
I talk like you're still here
shining in a dark place
like rain on the sea
dancing on a tightrope
Icarus, just before he fell
swallowing shadows
where wings once lay
falling away with you
each word gets lost in the echo
and i try to explain it
shadows under the moonlight
a memory of frost and snow
here, by this fire, with you
I talk like you're still here
shining in a dark place
like rain on the sea
dancing on a tightrope
Icarus, just before he fell
swallowing shadows
where wings once lay
falling away with you
each word gets lost in the echo
and i try to explain it
shadows under the moonlight
a memory of frost and snow
here, by this fire, with you

dancing on a tightrope
I am dancing on a tightrope,
springing toes eloping with
the gentle slope, the soft incline.
My hands are warm, entwined with air
that faintly shines (still echoing
with your delight). My fingers smile.
And as you sing, your sunset words
now send me undeterred to meet
the height of birds. And step for step,
no fear and no regrets have I:
my safety net--it is the sky.
