home by night

[[ A pretty regular song about lovers, one driving home to the other because they can't wait to see each other, but maybe some minor ambiguity about lunar madness and whether the wolf is any potential unknown enemy of the two lovers, or the wolf is the lover racing to get the lover at home, or the wolf is the lover waiting at home in bed like the wolf waited for Red Riding Hood. What big ears you have! ]]


nothing more peaceful than 
home by night

sensible people are 
home by night

home before wolves 
stumble out of the wood

home before wolves 
tumble Red Riding Hood

Wait for me there
on the edge of the bed
I'm halfway there in my head

Put on some music, 
my favorite tune
I'm driving under the moon

picture you sitting there  
home by night

combing your shining hair
home by night

safe from the wolves 
roaming out of doors

safe from the wolves 
of the metaphors

Wait for me there
on the edge of the bed
I'm halfway there in my head

Put on some music, 
my favorite tune
I'm driving under the moon
