A MOMENT

From the dark of a desert of love,
we came at once upon a watery place.
I'm in the dark as to what it all means,
high and low for forty nights and forty days.

Ever wonder what you would have been like
if you were born in far away place?
In the dark, like the sun, she has her moments.

Do you believe that when we leave this life
there remains some indelible trace?
In the dark, like the sun, we had a moment.

In the dark, in the dark, in the dark, we had a moment.
In the dark, in the dark, in the dark, we had a moment.
In the dark, in the dark, in the dark, we had a moment.

She said the two of us were fishes in a river
coming up to take a breath of the light.
We traded notes on the loves of our lives
and the ghosts that they became for us at night.

I wanna know what you were like as a child,
were you shy as the devil in love?
In the dark, like the sun, she has her moments.

We wondered if a sort of god exists,
being together made us sure he surely does.
In the dark, like the sun, we had a moment.

In the dark, in the dark, in the dark, we had a moment.
In the dark, in the dark, in the dark, we had a moment.
In the dark, in the dark, in the dark, we had a moment.

Oh, we had a moment.
