Come let's be gentle, be soft in my arms There's moonstorms been brewing and grain in the barns Your mother is sleeping, I'll play my guitar The twilight is keeping us close to the stars Here's where the stories live, here with the peace Oh the kindly ol' night wrapped warm in her fleece Oh dream up a hot day, oh dream and be full Of Orion, his bow, the plough and the bull
Oh, my darling
Go trust in their strength for these are your friends And pledge in them now their love knows no ends The bull looks a meanie but he's on your side And he pulls the plough which comes and divides Put space in the heavens, Einstein's idea And he's your friend too, so nothing to fear Orion'll help there, his darts find the dark And all you need do is watch for his mark
Oh, my darling
The suns and the moons and the galaxies far Were cast from his bow before they were stars Oh and the gap in-between them is nothing to us Our eyes cut the distance as loving eyes must From me unto you son from dust unto dust
Oh, my darling
