Love is not a distance
a forgiving or a bride
it's a dress you slip inside
and flaunt amongst the angels
and fall for like a fool
when you catch a glimpse
of your reflection
in their eye

as a pool beneath the stars reflects the heavens
in your mind is a pool beneath the stars
and as a pool beneath the stars reflects the heavens
so in your mind

you know how eyes creep up and find
one another like two coins in a bowl
you know how love divides without halving
as between two souls
you know the distance is the asking
like a flock that from slaughter grows
as well that deepens
as it drains
taking the empty hand

as a pool beneath the stars reflects the heavens
in your mind is a pool beneath the stars
as a pool beneath the stars reflects the heavens
so in your mind
so in your mind
it's all in your mind
