Love Is Like lyrics

Love is like a white moth sipping tears from sleeping birds An asteroid in flames tumbling to earth Raindrops sliding down the stems of orange leaves The flicker of a strange light far out across the sea Love is like a black fly buzzing in the sun Circling and landing, dancing like it’s drunk All around the red apples scattered on the lawn Fallen in the fury of last night’s thunderstorm Love is like the hole torn right through the roof When that old sugar pine came crashing down last night And above the broken beams and the shattered ceiling tiles You can see starlight for the very first time
