Darkest Love - Jump Little Children

Lie with me somewhere under sleepy stars

Darlin' lie with me somewhere on the edge of night

Lie with me in the tall wet grass

Darlin' lie with me somewhere on the edge of light

Somewhere where it can be

Just you and me

I believe in the absence of sun

I believe in the shadow of one

I believe in the power of two

I believe in the darkness of you

My love, my love, my darkest love

Lie with me somewhere under desert hills

Darlin' lie with me somewhere on the virgin sand

Lie with me on the warm black stones

Darlin' lie with me somewhere on the virgin strand

Somewhere where it can be

Just you and me

I believe in the absence of sun

I believe in the shadow of one

I believe in the power of two

I believe in the darkness of you

My love, my love, my darkest love

All I need is you to show me the light

All I need is you to show me the light

All I need is you to show me the light

Show me, show me, show me the light

In this still beating night

I lie close to your face

The moon is a spotlight

For this quiet space

If we stay still like statues

And don’t say a word

We will not be seen

We will not be heard

The stillness has purpose

Its own subtle dance

If we move just an inch

We have ruined this chance

It’s the calm that is key here

Its coolness has strength

It shadows hold mysteries

Locked to great lengths

Black like a bible

Read words in hand

Black like a crow

Flying low to the sand

All eyes are closed to the absence of light

Those others, still sleeping, are nowhere in sight

But we hear the starfall that cannot be seen

And we feel the stirrings of things in between

Tell me dreams in the dark

That you can’t tell by day

And ways you’ve discovered

To hold dawn at bay
