The Hunter

You are no stranger to this land On the move, rabbit’s foot in hand In the age of distraction Sentient, and parched for love

Whispering a vital message Your honeyed words set hearts aglow Bite your tongue with simple pleasure Desire lasts

Can you hear the bells and chimes Ring for love in white Lonely hunter on the prowl Divine charm of the night

From up high you watch our faces Lean into close lipped embraces Guard our flame with all your might

Sunrise, a lonely vision As your lovers drift apart Helplessly you watch it die Monogamy’s demise?

Still you wear your bow and arrow Place the bait, sweep the glass Hold your breath and aim for love Take one last shot

Can you hear the bells and chimes Ring for love in white Lonely hunter on the prowl Divine charm of the night

The golden arrow stings in time Bull’s eye, heart of mine
