Half-Awake in Moonlight

 

No one is fully awake in this strange moonlight

The magic won’t work if we think of it

Pirate ships can’t fly if there’s logic about

And lovers would never touch hands

 

For lovers and pirates are always stealing something

Kisses and treasures and sometimes hearts

And we have all been lovers and pirates at times

And even now when moonlight magics our dreams

 

And we are richer than a treasure’s worth

When our silver kisses flutter over the earth
