[Two] Planets meeting face to face
One to the other cried, how sweet!
If endlessly we might embrace
A perfect union deep in space
Heaven might this once relent
And give us leave to shine as one
Our two lights here forever, one light blended
And in that longing to be one
The parting summons' sound is rung
I see you've got to travel on
And on and on, around the sun
Strangers passing in the street
By chance two separate glances meet
And I am you and what I see is me
And do I take you by the hand
And lead you through the land
And help me understand the best I can
And no one calls us to move on
And no one forces down our eyes
No one speaks, and no one tries
No one flies around the sun
Cloudless every day you fall upon my waking eyes
Inviting and inciting me to rise
And through the window in the wall
Come streaming in on sunlight wings
A million bright ambassadors of morning
And no one sings me lullabies
And no one makes me close my eyes
So I throw the windows wide
And call to you across the sky
