When this here and now has been and gone

And you're stretched out like some summer dawn

In a sleepy south shore town that yawns

In a lawn chair waiting for the flood to come

Where that sky is cracking over you

Letting sheets of lemon light leak through

Bathroom windows spinning round and you

In that mirror looking for someone you knew

Lover, let go,

And you will know

The dreams you hold will grow

And visions of such love will scold

The terror now that fills your soul

So lover, let go...

When it's late at night and the house is blue

From the moonlight dancing round your room

And you're all alone save for the kick

Of a second heart beats inside you, kid

Lover, let go

And you will know

That child delivered grows

And builds an ark of junkyard hope

Where you'll sail into the world in a flood of love

Where you'll sail into the world in a flood of love

Where you'll sail into the world in a flood of love
