Northern Downpour

If all our life is but a dream

Fantastic posing greed

Then we should feed our jewelry to the sea

For diamonds do appear to be

Just like broken glass to me

And then she said she can't believe

Genius only comes along

In storms of fabled foreign tongues

Tripping eyes, and flooded lungs

Northern downpour sends its love

Hey, moon, please forget to fall down

Hey, moon, don't you go down

Sugarcane in the easy mornin'

Weathervanes my one and lonely

The ink is running toward the page

It's chasin' off the days

Look back at both feet

And that winding knee

I missed your skin when you were east

You clicked your heels and wished for me

Through playful lips made of yarn

That fragile Capricorn

Unraveled words like moths

Upon old scarves

I know the world's a broken bone

But melt your headaches

Call it home

Hey, moon, please forget to fall down

Hey, moon, don't you go down

Sugarcane in the easy mornin'

Weathervanes my one and lonely

Sugarcane in the easy mornin'

Weathervanes my one and lonely

Sugarcane in the easy mornin'

Weathervanes my one and lonely

Sugarcane (Hey, moon)

In the easy mornin' (Hey, moon)

Weathervanes my (Hey, moon)

One and lonely (Hey, moon)

Sugarcane (Hey, moon)

In the easy mornin' (Hey, moon)

Weathervanes my (Hey, moon)

One and lonely (Hey, moon)

Sugarcane (Hey, moon)

In the easy mornin' (Hey, moon)

Weathervanes my (Hey, moon)

One and lonely (Don't you know now?)

Sugarcane (Hey, moon)

In the easy mornin' (You are at the top of my love, hey, moon)

Weathervanes my (Hey, moon)

One and lonely (Hey, moon)

Sugarcane (Hey, moon)

In the easy mornin' (Please forget to fall down)

Weathervanes my (Hey, moon, don't you go down)

One and lonely

Sugarcane (You are at the top of my lungs)

(Drawn to the ones who never yawn)
