O what love is this; that I am still so in love with th… Hath not the empty years passed; enough to set my heart free? O thou love by the undying sea,
The warmth I felt has now turn… for barriers of winter ensue May you see the winds that carry m… as they carry me over skies of blu… The warmth I felt has now turned…
O sins of secrets and smiling girt… you raked the dirt with your lies… You shadowed the mountains and bir… lighting the night with your painf… You impregnated my mind with fallo…
O love within my hearts desire, you tangled neath brush and briar; to live below a world of bitter b… while my lips drip with lovers win… Now in chambers bed I weep,
When I am nothing but a cloud… and my memory old as rust; you will see me standing on the sh… you’ll feel me in the winds that g… You’ll hear my voice at midnight,
I said a prayer for you, from very far away It reached the heavens high, God heard what I had to say I asked to keep you safe
Let me live my life of dreams; to rid this brow of furrow I’ll kick the dirt from parted sea… and throw away the sorrow The sun will rise on caps of water
Around the fire a heated ring Lips that meld, hearts that sing A dancing vision, to unfurl Skin of ginger, rich as pearl Loving sighs, moon of pale
Awaken, precious flower, For your buds are laved in dew Like beads upon your thorns, in the morning day of new For in your sweet essence,

Over the moon shines a beam, A resplendent heavenly light Within it’s hue I see my dreams, beyond the stars in yonder night One journey ends, another begins,
