lyrics

in darkness we lie in this bed just before dawn
we just need enough sunlight for the curtains to be drawn
once there, man, we don't care if it's absolutely grey
we don't need a reason to stay in bed all day

we touch skin and settle in with the fiction we pursue
it's good to know that you're right here when the plot lines run askew
you're in spain or chicago and i'm in outer space
but with you lying next to me, well I don't want to leave this place

sunshine or thunder
will you meet me under

you and me and like The Left Hand Of Darkness
a novel by Ursula K Le Guin
I've read it several times before
and I'll read that shit again

even though you like contemporary stuff you don't think it's odd
when you see me reading a fantasy or Chariot Of The Gods
i WISH we came from aliens, cuz I bet they're pretty smart
when it comes to hooks, and reading books, and matters of the heart

sunshine or thunder
will you meet me under the covers?
