You Reach Me

Moonlight's in her eyes and I can't see three feet in front of me

And it's the middle of the day

Herculean tasks, they come and go so easily

When her rods and her cones play

White bluely bathed in Elysian fields they run

And I don't care what time it is

I'd throw my watch away if I could hold the lunar surface

With the flicker of light that she witnesses

And if I'm reaching you

Don't you feel guilty

And there's nothing to do

And you can only help me

And I may never learn

But you can only teach me

I'm not sure where you're trying to go

All I'm saying is that you reach me

Some see the forest for the trees to avoid the trouble

Trouble might be what I'm looking for

Or surely I'd about-face and on the double

But it just doesn't work anymore

No longer up to me, a compass leads the way

Restless evening spirit unwilling to cease

Responsible for what the Ouija board might say

Although it's my finger that moves the piece

And if I'm reaching you

Don't you feel guilty

And there's nothing to do

And you can only help me

And I may never learn

But you can only teach me

I'm not sure where you're trying to go

All I'm saying is that you reach me

I lash myself at the helm as my ship sails her reef

A violent storm is all around me

But before me only calm and welcome waters

As if at last she finally found me

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

And if I'm reaching you

Don't you feel guilty

And there's nothing to do

And you can only help me

And I may never learn

But you can only teach me

I'm not sure where you're trying to go

All I'm saying is that you reach me

And I may never learn

But you can only teach me

I'm not sure where you're trying to go

All I'm saying is that you reach me

The wind chimes and you're mine a thousand times

Until my rhymes and other crimes have aged like wine

You are sublime, so fine

You reach me, you reach me
