Mary and the Storm

Come Mary, come and watch the storm
Mother’s fears are tired sleepers
Beyond her silent windowsill
Father’s peering eyes now fade with weight
We’ll run like silent phantoms
Free until the dawn
We’re entwined in midnite’s embrace
Your house, a purple prison
So far away
I’ll hide our game in the treetops
And sleeping phantoms we will chase
Come Mary, come and watch the storm
Mother’s candle has exhausted
She’s dreaming of your birth
Father’s clever watch is laid to sleep
Downstairs i wait for you
Beyond the boards that creak
We’re entwined in midnite’s embrace
Your house, a purple ruin
So far away
I’ll hide our game in the treetops
And sleeping phantoms we will chase
Mother’s will is far away
Father’s fists are far away
We set the horses loose tonite
Unbridled freedom, Blessed night
Unbidled Freedom
Blessed night
Come Mary, come and watch the storm
With me
Tonite
