Lodestar

Out of the night, into the water
We push the boat from shore
Breaking the air in the stillness of the bay

Intensity of stars reflected in the harbour
Silently ignite
The oar dips in to oil like water and we
Are away

Your hand won't write, not tonight
But your mind may wander
Into those deep lagoons that you know

And your boat will go, by starlight alone
"Da da da da da da da da"
You sang to the moon
In the great black night with no lodestar
In sight

Out in the night, out on the water
We pull the boat back to shore
Breathing the air in the stillness of the bay
Intensity of stars reflected in the water
Silently ignite
The oar dips in to oil like water and we
Are away
Under the moon
In the great black night with no lodestar
In sight

And wait for it
There are only two things now
This great black night
And the fire glow
Listen, the darkness reigns
The darkness, listen, the darkness reigns
And wait for it
There are only two of us now
This great black night swoops down
And this fire glows
Listen, the darkess reigns
The darkness
Listen, the darkness reigns
Take off your things
And listen, the darkness reigns
