Look Out Desdemona

Do I know that face
Or is it just the light?
Did I hold your hand in another life?
I worn many coats
Just to brave the wild
I've been a thousand men
I’ve been a single child

Look out, Desdemona
Your father saw you smile

Well yes, I know that laugh
As the credits fade
And from the way I bleed
I believe I know that blade
I hope my dying words
They keep you awake
Like a golden rule
You just can't obey

Look out, Desdemona
You're not too young to pay

I know your secret
Thought I could keep it
But I know, I know that I can't

Do you see that moon?
Do you see those stars?
They have never changed
I have strayed so far
The light just lays itself
On your long, white neck
Like it softly did
On the night we met

Look out, Desdemona
This is all we get
