By the Marina


There she is, wishing she were different.

There she is, counting up her flaws.

There she stands

My radiant moon

My luminous star

My love, You don't know

How perfect you are.

The jaws of life are collapsing quickly

The ebb of the ship has turned me sickly

But, there you are

My luminous star.
