Songtext Never had it better Matthew E. White

Never had it better

One time for our mountain
Our volcano that threw herself from the sea
And when the rain striped the cement sky on the way to crown her
I covered you in a banana leaf
Two times for our lime green oceanside motel
And for the coupla nights that we decided to spend there
I found my roots in something deeper then
We called it love, or was it deliverance

I’ve never had it better
I’ve never had it better than this, with you
I’ve never had it better than this

Three times for an August moon, just lit you right
On a hard black beach on a soft black night
We made the angels jealous, felt ‘em hoverin’ close
We called it love we called it discoverin head to toe

I’ve never had it better
I’ve never had it better than this, with you
I’ve never had it better than this

Sometimes when the night is warm but the wind is cold
When my mind is young, but my body’s old
And the light is dancing like a swarm of bees
I know all we were given is shadows and dreams
And mine was a dense and reverberating jungle
And mine was a transparent cathedral
I was a bruiseless child, I was unstained light
My body is cloudy, my body was bright
And mine was an incandescent grove of rubies
And mine was that sweet fruit of electric beauty
I’ve walked the length of my mind, and feel it end
LIke the edge of a shadow when the light descends
I’ve never had it better
I’ve never had it better than this, with you
I’ve never had it better than this
