Sitting by a campfire
in a temporary home.
Sitting three feet away from you
I’m as silent as a stone.
And my heart is all in pieces–
I was unfair.
It ain’t your job to be strong;
I got to be as light as air.
And I know that its true,
I know I wanted something,
I was asking for a home,
I was looking for a ring,
But I’ll promise you this–
promise I’ll be moving on,
that I’ll reach the base of Everest
before we reach the dawn,
So please believe in me,
please believe in me,
please believe in me…
We can mate with rabbits.
Please believe in me,
please believe in me,
please believe in me…
we can mate with rabbits.
A seed has been planted
somewhere deep inside.
The moon has started tugging at
these tears in my eyes.
I see you packing your bags–
I know you’re going away.
Hey, that’s alright with me;
I ain’t asking you to stay.
But if a heart can travel,
mine will travel with you.
Put this locket in your pocket;
take my picture with you,
Cause if you’re on a bed of nettles,
and it’s colder than the sun,
and you really need a friend,
you can be certain of one…
If you’ll believe in me,
please believe in me,
please believe in me…
We can mate with rabbits.
Please believe in me,
please believe in me,
please believe in me…
we can mate with rabbits.
I know that I’m Orpheus;
I know that it’s true.
I know I cannot turn around
to take a picture of you.
And your footsteps are light;
it’s hard to hear a thing.
And its blacker than the night;
it’s hard to see a thing.
But there’s a light up above,
and we’ll come out in the spring
when the bluebirds are alighting
on the green of a wing,
And if you wanna have a picnic
that’s something I can do.
If you wanna know the truth,
I wanna make love with you.
Please believe in me,
please believe in me,
please believe in me…
We can mate with rabbits.
Please believe in me,
please believe in me,
please believe in me…
we can mate with rabbits.
