Sitting in my warm tub / While the shower water falls across me / Reveling in my habitat

In the silence of the night / In the soft stillness / In the dark eyes of you

Back in the dark / In the past before the printed word / Before ink and feathered pens

I took a multitude of universes from you / An infinite series of possible other yous / Each completing a life different from this one.
