In the world of this room kingdoms arise
From the shadow of doubt by the light of your eyes. We topple and fall
Like the head of a groom at the end of his reign
In the world of this room
The seasons unfold
Their maps in the sand, but all fortune's told
In your opening hand. There's storm at the door as cold as the tomb,
But stars in the dark
Of the world of this room
The railroading sun
Is rolling in debt- sending his best,
His regards and regrets; the desert relenting
A feverish bloom:
The weather of love
In the world of this room
Oh, the way that I love you nobody knows
It's sewn in the silk
That's lining my clothes; like terms of surrender, your keys and my spoon
And all of the hope
In the world of this room
