Heart
Susan McKeown

Cannot ask the questions I had yesterday
In the bloody scarlet purple tunnelway

And the lights go off and on
Keep on burning them they're gone
Turn those steely strings for me my love
Keep a little starfruit for me my love

Your fingers searching for the place but your heart's not there
It's shining down on my face in your stare

And the lights go off and on
Keep on burning them they're gone
Turn those steely strings for me my love
Keep a little starfruit for me my love
