Mary Lambert - Dear One lyrics

[Mary Lambert - Dear One lyrics]

Where did you come from, bright star
What heaven did you leap from, dear love
How can I spell your name
Without the sound of
Autumn underneath my tongue
Without acknowledging the lovers who
Bent me in half
Bless them for bringing me to you
How can I say your name without
Also breathing the words
"My god, I found you"
How can I ever speak again with this mouth
When it has found where it belongs
When you touch me i am a bed of calla lilies
I will make a house for you
And fill it with evergreens
I will paint sunsets on every wall
So you can only see beautiful things
How can I say "love" without wanting
To fold myself into you
Like a thousand paper cranes dear one
I was halved the moment I was born
The other piece of me is inside your mouth
And I was found whole the moment you spoke
