Lyrics:

Interoretation of early black and white haitian love songs

One.

Oceans wept

Moutains slept

Sidewalks crumbled to ash

Your name remains

In children's lullabies

And your eyes forever in the sky

Two.

Pull me close

Dear i'm tremblin'

Hold me tight

I'm afraid ot the night

Blackness fills the room

Your love burns bright

Three.

Oh summer winds

Remind me of your kiss

Soft and warm

I never want to leave this

Four.

I never wanted ti say goodbye

I'd throw myself to the sea

If god promised you're inside

We'd float to island paradise

And i'd become your bride

Five.

The countryside looks bare

Without you lying in her grass

The stream is dry

And the crickets silent

There's no music in the night

I'd become smoke

And hide in your cigarette pack

Seven.

To be a star

Tossing light

To sparkle in your eyes

I'd become an angel

And kiss this earth goodbye

Eight.

Destiny

Use to be

Just a word to me

But heaven sure was right

When they said jesus left somethin' behind

Nine.

Every inch of this body

I'd plate in gold for you

Even though i ain't go no money

I'd do it just to keep you

Ten.

Your eyes appear

In every one of my dreams

They glitter and they gleam

Like the first time we meet

Eleven.

The chickens crowed

And i knowed your home

My spirit ran to greet you

Before my feet left the porch
