I am Inanna

Intro

"I am Inanna.

Queen of heaven.

Mistress of the sacred bed.

I open the door for whom I choose."

Verse 1

I bathed in moonwater, anointed my skin

Pulled on my queenly robes, let the night begin

I am the field that no one has plowed

I am the door — but I choose the crowd

My womb knows what it wants tonight

The cedar rising at the edge of light

He waits outside with his milk and fat

I know his hunger — I want that

Chorus

Honey-man, honey-man, sweeten me slow

Holy bed, fragrant oil, let the fire grow

I am the goddess, you kneel at my gate

Come inside — but you come when I say

Honey-man, honey-man, sweetens me always

His hands are honey, his mouth ablaze

I opened the door and he shone before me

Like the light of the moon — come and adore me

Verse 2

He is the lettuce planted by water

He is the wild bull, earth's firstborn son

But I am the one who decides this night

Who rises and falls when the rite is done

I rejoiced — I let him take his pleasure

Tongue-playing, one by one, slow measure

Fifty times my fair shepherd came

Still I am the one who carries his name

Chorus

Honey-man, honey-man, sweeten me slow

Holy bed, fragrant oil, let the fire grow

I am the goddess, you kneel at my gate

Come inside — but you come when I say

Honey-man, honey-man, sweetens me always

His hands are honey, his mouth ablaze

I opened the door and he shone before me

Like the light of the moon — come and adore me

Break

From where the sun rises

To where the sun sets

I carry the divine powers

No god forgets

I am desire

I am the flood

I am the cedar

I am the blood

Build

Open the door — (open the door)

Sacred the night — (sacred the night)

I am the goddess — (she is the light)

Come when I call — (come when I call)

Drop

Honey-man, honey-man, sweeten me slow

Holy bed, fragrant oil, let the fire grow

I am the goddess, you kneel at my gate

Come inside — but you come when I say

Honey-man, honey-man, sweetens me always

His hands are honey, his mouth ablaze

I opened the door and he shone before me

Like the light of the moon — come and adore me
