Same Glass, Different Light (Law of Gender)

[INTRO] You caught me looking at the moon like it owed me an answer I caught you looking at me like you already knew Sunlight sleeping on your shoulder midnight living in your eyes How you standing here beside me while you're moving through my sky [VERSE 1] I know you by your phases you know me by my flame You've seen me rise in different skies and loved me by the same name Some nights you're full of everything some nights you're barely there Still I feel you pulling oceans from a distance we both share Maybe that's the gravity maybe that's the fall Maybe love is knowing I don't have to name it all You move me without touching touch me without hands I lose myself inside your eyes and somehow understand [PRE CHORUS] I see you See me too Same glass different light One reflection split in two [CHORUS] Meet me where the light loves the dark where your moon pulls the tide in my heart You shine on me I shine through you Two in the mirror one in the view Round and round we keep finding somewhere Every revolution reveals what was there Still me still you somehow one too I become more me loving you [VERSE 2] Cover me Discover me Recover what I hide Let your shadow cross my body till the dark becomes a light When you eclipse me I can feel the whole world stare Funny how disappearing can reveal what's always there You know when I am waxing know when I must wane Know the difference between holding me and sheltering my flame Orbit isn't ownership Gravity ain't chains If I circle back by choice then every revolution changed And you You never ask me to be only what you see You turn another face toward me and uncover more of me [CHORUS] Meet me where the light loves the dark where your moon pulls the tide in my heart You shine on me I shine through you Two in the mirror one in the view Round and round through the distance we share Every revolution I find you somewhere Still me still you somehow one too I become more me loving you [BRIDGE] Look at me No Look into me Closer Look through me There If I am your mirror and you're mine Which one of us is the light Which one the reflection Which one the eye Maybe love isn't choosing a side [falsetto] Maybe we're the question and the answer changing places every night [VERSE 3] I don't need another lifetime to make this lifetime true Don't need heaven as a witness when I'm standing here with you You are not my missing half I came to you whole You don't complete me You reveal what I couldn't see alone And I love you for the darkness not despite the absence of light Cause I've learned a moon can disappear and never leave the night I've learned a sun can set without surrendering the flame And two lovers can keep changing without loving something changed [FINAL CHORUS] Meet me where the light loves the dark where forever is a moment with an open heart You shine on me I shine through you Two in the mirror one in the view Sun into moon moon into sun Neither disappearing when the two become one Still me Still you Still something new I become more me loving you [falsetto] More me loving you More you loving me [OUTRO] Sun on your side of the window Moon on mine Same glass Different light Same time And somewhere in the middle Us
