Darling, I am shaken In my limbs I made a fire And though all heaven is revealed You are my one desire I cannot hold my thought There's poison in my head I simply turn to look And all at once the world is dead Oh lover, still you talk You are the king of all you see The unmade bed you lie upon This strange likeness of me My body be your focus Your labour be my joy For everything is decided In the twinkle of an eye Darling, I am a sailor And I chart the southern lands I can the ocean with my song And I rouse her with my hands I'll build for you a craft Out of my jealousies We'll raise a sail and let it coast Into eternity Lover, you are weary Come and rest between my thighs The hungry dogs of reason They have filled you full of lies I'll give to you my army On my city and my throne I'll give the flower of my love To you and your love © transcript Emily Beynon © transcript Emily Beynon © transcript Emily Beynon
