In a Cave
Celestial Sanctuary of Love: Exploring Moonlit Desires in 'In a Cave'
Lyrics
Will you jump up here next to me?
Invitation for someone to join the speaker.
The moon is close and warm and serene
Describing the moon as close, warm, and serene.
And it's mine for you.
Expressing ownership of the moon for the other person.
In this cave I have found just for us
Referring to a special cave for both individuals.
Forget your fat it's a pillow soft for my neck
Asking the other person to forget insecurities, creating a comfortable space.
In this cave on the moon built for you
Describing the cave on the moon built specifically for the other person.
Just for you because you're perfect
Expressing the exclusivity of the cave for the perfect person.
O mental patch it swells and shudders
Referring to emotional intensity and physical sensations.
All your skin and hair in moonlight
Highlighting the beauty of the other person in moonlight.
With a hole in the roof
Describing a hole in the roof for observing the planet.
Where we can watch our planet circle away.
Creating a scene to watch the planet as it moves away.
Will you touch the cave's cream stone walls?
Asking the other person to interact with the cave's walls.
Here I'll hold your tender years
Offering comfort and support for the other person's younger years.
And they're mine your youth is mine in this cave.
Emphasizing ownership of the other person's youth in the cave.
So jump up here onto the closer moon.
Encouraging the other person to join on the moon.
I'll have the food and downy warmth.
Promising provisions and warmth in the cave.
Your love will rear a family in this cave on the moon.
Envisioning a future family in the cave on the moon.
Where we can watch our planet circle away and come back.
Repeating the scene of observing the planet's cycles.
In this cave on the moon.
Reiterating the setting of the cave on the moon.
