Tune of: The Girl in the Garden

[hammerdancer]

the stars are holes in a crystalline globe
holes in the sky to let the rain in
can only be known in the comfort of night
the girl in the darkness and i

one night, two days and back, back again
she catches my eyes and works wonders
her face and her hair, hold my mind like a prisoner
girl in the darkness and i

the stars in their courses will run
bring my thoughts earthward to fear her
the ends of the earth fall nearer
to the girl in the darkness
