He was a Daytime Wind-howler all covered in shrouds of grief She was a Sunset Nightingale with pink and golden wreaths Upon her head with hair so dark It made one feign to weep She held out hands of magic pearls and wiped his tears asunder The fragile mess lay in her lap The pale sky switched to thunder She wasn’t bothered by his past She’d sail on any ship She’d fall in love real fast Staring deep into majestic mirrors She’d take on any form If not for howler’s poison kiss, She’d run right straight inside the storm But for him, there were thorns everywhere Blanketing the mother earth; the sky, the sea, the air From whence he came nobody knows, but Daytime Wind-howler howls and howls and growls Lets his teeth show While Sunset Nightingale sings her love Of daffodils and peppermint groves Until the day when such grave laments should be let go

Daytime Wind-howler
He was a Daytime Wind-howler all covered in shrouds of grief She was a Sunset Nightingale with pink and golden wreaths Upon her head with hair so dark It made one feign to weep She held out hands of magic pearls and wiped his tears asunder The fragile mess lay in her lap The pale sky switched to thunder She wasn’t bothered by his past She’d sail on any ship She’d fall in love real fast Staring deep into majestic mirrors She’d take on any form If not for howler’s poison kiss, She’d run right straight inside the storm But for him, there were thorns everywhere Blanketing the mother earth; the sky, the sea, the air From whence he came nobody knows, but Daytime Wind-howler howls and howls and growls Lets his teeth show While Sunset Nightingale sings her love Of daffodils and peppermint groves Until the day when such grave laments should be let go
