he was crazy, of course
from the first she must have known it
but she ***** went on with him
and never once had shown it
she took him off the streets
and she dried his tears of grieving
she believed in his believing
oh he was the sun burning bright and brittle and
she was the moon shining back his light a little
he was a shooting star, she was softer and more slowly
he could not make things possible
but she could make them holy - holy
well she gave him a daughter and she gave him a son
she was a mother and a wife, and a lover when the day was done
when he was too far gone for giving love
what he offered her instead
was the knowledge she was the only thing
that was not in his head
