I Gave You My Home - Mia Doi Todd

I gave you my home

I gave you my hope

The walls, they surround us

Unbound us.

We are one

I gave you my heart

I gave you my art

All of creation

Is here in my kitchen

Soup is on

Lover, lover

Come on over

You gave me your home

You gave me your hope

Built us an altar

Of bronze and redwood timber

The stairs are done

You gave me your heart

You gave me your art

Drawings and flowers

And so many hours

Night has come

Lover, lover

Roll on over

We woke up from dreams

Took turns at the sink

We crawl back into bed

There are eggs for an omelette

If you’re hungry

Lover, lover

Turn me over
