You Reach Me

Moonlight's in her eyes and I can't see three feet in front of me And it’s the middle of the day Herculean tasks they come and go so easily When her rods and her cones play White bluely bathed in Elysian fields they run And I don't care what time it is I'd throw my watch away if I could hold the lunar surface For the flicker of light that she witnesses And if I'm reaching you Don't you feel guilty And there's nothing to do And you can only help me And I may never learn But you can only teach me I'm not sure where you're trying to go All I'm saying is that you reach me Some see the forest for the trees to avoid the trouble Trouble might be what I'm looking for Or surely I'd about-face and on the double But it just doesn't work anymore No longer up to me, a compass leads the way Restless evening spirit unwilling to cease Responsible for what the Ouija board might say Although it's my finger that moves the piece And if I'm reaching you Don't you feel guilty And there's nothing to do And you could only help me And I may never learn But you can only teach me I'm not sure where you're trying to go All I'm saying is that you reach me I lash myself at the helm as my ship sails her reef A violent storm is all around me But before me only calm and welcome waters As if at last she finally found me Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah And if I'm reaching you Now, don't you feel guilty And there's nothing to do And you could only help me And I may never learn But you can only teach me I'm not sure where you're trying to go All I'm saying is that you reach me And I may never learn But you can only teach me I'm not sure where you're trying to go All I'm saying is that you reach me The wind chimes and you're mine a thousand times Until my rhymes and other crimes have aged like wine You are sublime, so fine You reach me You reach me
