You Strange Precious Thing

Latching,

Catching,

Ourselves,

Falling,

Matching,

Myself,

To you,

You strange previous thing

Much of the same,

As I cried out my own name,

We pull out all the shame together,

Much of the same,

I turn into some strange,

We break stones with stones,

Bones with bones,

In love, together

You can't offer me a thing,

Nothing that I haven't already been,

I watch it all pass by,

It's gone, it's gone,

Soft as a dove,

Have I done enough,

Am I damned if I choose to remain,

Am I guilty if I keep it the same,

For love

I say under my breath “it was never mine to choose”

I’m twirling round in mid-air

Its all change up here

Latching,

Catching,

Ourselves,

Falling,

Further,

Away,

From you,

I am…

Latching,

Catching,

Ourselves,

Falling,

Further,

Away,

From you,

I am…

You strange previous thing.
