Seven oceans couldn’t keep me away from you
Even as fine as the morning dew
Is, you are subtler still
And it takes a tremendous display of will
To turn my head from you
And it’s not because I wanted to
It’s just this vacuum opens up
And I’m not too sure if it is love
Just some dark oblivion 
Moving to the music of us getting it on
And I’m a magnitude that shakes your sphere 
And there’s a devil may care when you are near
As though you’ve just thrown it over your shoulder 
Near the Colorado river southwest of Boulder 
And I might have allowed 
The fertile land the machinery ploughed 
To bloom green again anew
Because I have been avoiding you
In all the midnights I collected 
And the buildings you erected
Will fall in a storm
I know she keeps your body warm
On cold nights when the wind whistles
And your thoughts are as sharp as thistles 
That you roll onto in your sleep
It’s a promise that you keep
To the girl you’ve wed 
That you will have no one else instead
But I could never agree
It’s simply not me 
To annul the population
For an education 
In solitary and alone
With a man you call home
