Look how sweet she sleeps,
how free must be her dreams
world up in faithfully wed
who loved psalms beside moonlight streams
neither honest nor forgive
I and I, one step to the other,
bed, see my face and lips
Think I'll go out and go for a walk
Besides if she wakes up now,
she'll just want me to talk
especially about what could and could not be
neither honest nor forgive
I and I, one said to the other,
no man's seen my face and lips
once where the swift didn't win the race
who could divide the word of truth
Took a stranger to teach me
to look into justice's face
And to see an eye for an eye
neither honors nor forgives
I and I, one said to the other,
no man sees my face and lives
Outside are two men on a train platform,
They're waitin' for spring to come,
The world could come to an end tonight,
She should still be there
I and I, in creation where one's nature
neither honors nor forgives
I and I, one side to the other,
no man sees my face and lives
and I'm still pushing myself along
the road on the darkest path
I can't stumble or stay put
Somebody else is speaking
but I'm listening only to my heart
I've made shoes for everyone,
even you, while I still go barefoot
I and I, in creation where one's nature
neither honors nor forgives
I and I, one say to the other
love and sees my face, it lives
