Lyrics

Monsoon July 2008

1. Here I sit, in the curve of the moon
Body wrapped inside a cocoon
Your love holds me like the dark half of the moon
Invisible but always true

2. Outside my window two strong trees stand side by side
Anchored solid they are watching the tide
Their roots are married down to the waves out in the bay
Wearing gowns of ivy, it’s still their wedding day

CHORUS
Let’s ripen like the moon, like blueberries in June
Let’s go home with tears of joy for all the time we’ve had
Cry me a monsoon

3. Your love is the liquid warmth of the sun
Pouring through the light in your eyes
Love moves as a river through every kind of territory
Move into the ocean with me

CHORUS
Let’s ripen like the moon, like blueberries in June
Let’s go home with tears of joy for all the time we’ve had
Cry me a monsoon
Cry me a monsoon
