Astronaut
Victoria Legrand
Come over to my house
I’ll pour some tea for us
One sugar or two?
Your hand is right in front of me
Your finger fragile-ly holy on my side
Faster than an astronaut
Who’s coming home to what he left long ago
I’ve made this brand new bed for you
I trust the things we do
Holy or not
Open the gate
'Cause you’re already late
At the end of the lane is a glass of lemonade
Keep on the path
When you hear the laugh
In the white of her palm is your heart
I’ll be brave for a while
I won’t bring you down
Any more than you are
I’ll be brave for a while
I won’t bring you down
Any more than you are
Hey, be my baby
Don’t mean maybe
Or not
Look out the window
There’s a bright yellow cat
Please, be my baby
Don’t mean maybe
Or not
