This is where I want to be Here with you so close to me Until the final flicker of life's ember I who was lost and lonely Believing life was only A bitter tragic joke Have found with you The meaning of existence

Havana moon, Havana moon Me all alone with jug of rum Me stand and wait for boat to come It's long the night, it's quiet the dock The boat she late since twelve o'clock Me watch the tide easin' in Is low the moon, but high the wind Me all alone, me open

Floating upon the quiet hydrogen lakes In this ambrosial merrry-go-round they will gaze Ephemeral life touched by a billion-year-show Separating the poet from the woe A grand oasis in the vastness of gloom Child of dew-spangled cobweb, Mother to the Moon
