superspreader

V1: 

I don’t want you to look at me, I’m afraid of drowning in your eyes 

I don’t want you to speak to me, I won’t hear a word you say 

I don’t want to go out tonight, with you there are no darkened skies 

Someone who can shine so bright, would turn my night-time into day 

CH: 

With you I dream of places , to which I’ve never been 

If you’re to be my virus, then I don’t want the vaccine 

Together we’ll go higher, my superspreader of love 

Spread our wings and fly, to the stars above 

V2: 

Winds will come and storms will rage, volcanoes blow and the earth will shake 

But nothing in this beleaguered age, the chains that bind me to you can break 

And when the silver spaceships come, from their myriad homes above 

When they meet us they’ll be struck dumb with wonder that we can know such love 

CH2: 

If you’re to be my gaoler, then I don’t want to be free 

If you’re to be my siren, I’ll come live in the sea 

Together we’ll go higher, my superspreader of love 

Spread our wings and fly, to the stars above.     March 2021
