if you could make me a believer in unsullied bliss
maybe I could leave this little precipice
if you could stay a little while until the light returns
we could take turns lighting candles and watching them burn
if you could dock this little boat somewhere along the shore
dam this little river and lock this little door
it's a long way down need I tell you?
if you could place a slender finger gently to my lips
warm my freezing hands, give me everything I've missed
if you could banish all the ghosts lurking in my mind
then plumb my deepest thoughts accepting all you may find
then set that old white flag by the entrance to the cave
and let loose the sails upon the waves
it's a long way down need I tell you more?
