Gibraltar

you

and your euro eyes

spanish heart

in disguise

when the ocean is

very high

to the rock

warm and dry

I’m the rock

and you know

british eyes

and a spanish glow

stand on me with your toes

shelter you

when the wet world blows

with eyes close

eyes closed

oh breathe me a quiet storm

when you’re in the dorm

or a soft hurricane

in the acid rain

in the rain, in the rain

when the tide is high

and you’re heart a burning sigh

or a desert cold and dry

to the rock you crying fly
