Lullaby for a Grieving Man

My name is written in your hand
 A single line
 A simple sign
 Love don't forget our secret tongue
 Don't give my name to some other charming one you'll find
 My name is writ there in your palm
 Plain as a ripple in a summer calm
 Oh darling let me stay
 Oh darling let me stay
 On rocks the wise man built his house
 Well I'll put on my coat and boots
 And I'll head out to find some rocks like yours, dear friend
 To find some rocks like yours dear friend
 The stars aren't falling from the sky
 And this June rose won't fade and die
 Time keeps standing still and racing by
 So all the while, I'd ask you to
 Remember crocodile
 Wherever these pathways lead us to
 Wherever these strange pathways lead
 A silver strand from me winds back
 To where my name is written there
 Upon your hand, dear friend
 I'm written there upon your hand
 And the stars aren't falling from the sky
 And this June rose won't fade and die
 Time keeps standing still and racing by
 So darling believe me
 You'll never need to grieve me
 Because here I am
 And the stars won't fall down from the sky
 And this June rose won't fade and die
 Time keeps standing still and racing by
 Not safe not sorry and nor am I
 And the stars aren't falling from the sky
 And this June rose won't fade and die
 Time keeps standing still and racing by
