Empery O empery flourish in the moonlight
stars across galaxy are great empery

tree shadow empery curtained for night
an open window lets in the world

where still things move
street moon beams

black and white at night inside
voice and voice whisper shout

bring peace, a stormy kind, day and night
a bird in the heart

a Mitsubishi song whistles its own tune
want one, want one, want one

and you do,
the chorus voices boom in the roof

just when the road starts
getting personal

there's an old street lamp
a wild moon night

and beams of ghost light
come flooding down

empery, all empery.
