I want the water to have no riverbed
I want the wind to have no valleys
I want the night to lose its eyes
and my heart, its flower of gold
I want the oxen to speak to the big leaves
and the worm to die of shadow
Let the skulls teeth gleam
and the yellows flood the silk
I can see the wounded night in a duel
Struggling, coiled round noon
I can endure a sunset of green poison
and the broken arches where time suffers
Do not light up your clean nakedness
like a black cactus open in the reeds
Leave me longing for dark planets

And you taste just like fire
and fire was my home
And I couldn't be any higher
when I got you alone
And you, you're in the heart of it
I go to you like the mass
and I, I'm in the thick of it
I'm the chorus
You're the song
I'm the beat
You're the drum
You're the seed that I've sewn
I'm the seed that you've sewn

Your sugar is sweet and your absence is sweeter, my love
You don't owe anyone anything
And you're dirty
And you're gentle
And you're moaning
In the moonlight
You are the dream that keeps dreaming in sequence of blues
The one that is worn and torn between leaving and love
And your power
It's like heaven
And your heaven
Is your flower

Maribela
con tus manos
sanadoras
y tus ojos
son tan cariñosos
y hacen llorar a los dioses

If you're goin to the city
If you're goin to New Orleans
Won't you stay
for awhile
On Music Street?
Ain't nobody that could break my heart
But if you try
Well, who knows i just might let you
If you're goin to the city
If you're goin to New Orleans
Won't you stay
for awhile
On Music Street?
Ain't nobody that can shake my love
But if you try
Well, who knows I just might let you
And there ain't nobody that can break my heart
But if you try
Well, who knows I just might let you

Heaven Couldn't
03:57

It was the flash of light
Getting wide
Taverns and lilies
They go by
And heaven couldn't match you
If it tried
Radiation
Like the heartache of the human inside
In swinging dreams
You hold
My traveling hands and
Between my teeth
I break
This fruit, it's nectar
Just for me and you
For this love is new

You come to me with the weight of the night
I oughtta be thinkin you are whats right
I heard a word that is light
Tumbling and perfect is the radio song
You come to me with the weight of the night
The saddest thing is the look in your eyes
I heard a word that is light
Tumbling and perfect was the love that I lost

She said steady with your eyes
Don't make it so easy for anyone to fall in love with you
You know it hurts me
And soft with your hands
Once I find those angels, boy do I
got a gift for you
I'll dress your hands with onyx

Mother Was a Vagabond

Mother was a vagabond in the year ‘43
She rode across americas on an orange vld
And brother was an artist he painted her blue jeans
Roses and portraits of the sailors who loved her
“Speak not of tomorrow or i must clutch my heart”
She told to all the city boys who reached for her hand
“For i am lady vagabond and i love just like a free man”
Mother made her money from the bankers and rich fools
With a wave of her hand she opened vaults of dirty gain
Takes what is needed and the rest is left with the high-heeled stranger
“Speak not of tomorrow or i must clutch my heart”
She told to all the sheriffs who tried to catch her speed
“For i am lady vagabond and im fast just like a free man”
Mother gave birth to me in the town of new orleans
She took me across americas on an orange vld
She left me with a spiritual who fed me funny prayers from a tin can
“Speak not of tomorrow or i must clutch my heart”
She told me as i reached and wept for her long black curls
“For i am lady vagabond and you, of all the people, must understand”
