Dust 4 – Ariel Pink (originally by The 13th Floor Elevators)
By
Dust on your skin Must trust when it scatters Only love matters It’s been overjoyed
Scents and perfumes Wince since your higher fragrance Is memory incense And never destroyed
Every stop we’ve taken Is now a wondrous shrine Where nature is in order Your senses sensing mine
As I love you, all the creatures play As I love you, now it’s safe to say There’s no hang-up in our way The trees in our gaze Will show us the love that we breathe in This shouldn’t amaze They openly love all they are And loves all they are
Gifts to begin Lifts cliffs of expression They suit our impression And every whim
Taste has got thirst Faced waste beyond uses With so many juices We’re filled to the brim
Our pleasures not forsaken We cultivate our bend More chances reawaken When beginning meets the end
As I love you, all the creatures play As I love you, now it’s safe to say As I love you The faith that we build Will strengthen our close growing closer ‘Til waiting is filled We simply remember we are Wherever we are
Faith that we print May stay as we mold it But we’ll never hold it The promises long
‘Til we can wait Will still is intention We still need attention To help us along
