From this moment on there is love in a sleepy haze
Breathing in and listening to your voice
Learning to pass through valleys to your heart
I stand here on love’s threshold
So amazed

You have changed me and there are no secrets now
When our morning sun begins to rise
No indifferent frost will our hearts ever see
Rest upon our garden’s flowers
Or, in our eyes

I tasted your name on my lips as the sweetest wine
Yet until now I never really knew
What had been missing in my life all along
Is this sleepy haze of love
I found in you

The soul that knows the air he breathes
Already loves himself
On wings of possibility he flies
Outside of his own pain
With belief

The way he feels, he gently expresses
With a peaceful hand
Keeping his fires burning low
And manner of speech
In command

Where he hangs his hat, he calls home
A place where he is pleased
He listens to his morning ringing in
With a joyful heart
Just to be

The soul that knows the air he breathes
Holds his heart in his hands
Touching the world with the peace
He feels inside himself
As he can

I painted a picture of heaven with you as my sun
While humming with my eyes aglow
Smelled the fragrance of a rain
On a crimson satin rose
My heart you won

In this heaven I painted myself as your moon
Side by side there we glowed in our sky
And your ears caught every note
I softly hummed and replied
With smiling eyes

I painted a million stars into my picture of heaven
Stunningly beautiful, flaming bits of light
To let them listen as I hummed
My song of love each night
To you my sun

My picture of heaven became a show of lights
As each star moved in closer to hear
The song of love I hummed
For only my sun’s ears
And his delight

I painted a picture of heaven and removed the stars
So I could once again see the face of my sun
Finding my heaven a better place
With the light that comes
From where you are

I will be falling where the night is long
If you bruise my words
A thousand doors will cast memories
Into my thoughts

Who will then come and soothe my hours
Or my nameless face
When I cannot promise you the sun
In what I am feeling

I will live in the mountains of goodbye
Where no pleasure pains
Until I have sealed each peak
Into my thoughts

From the sky up above I will be falling
If you bruise my words
You will find me there waiting
Where the night is long

You and I will know only yesterday
Chased by a promise
That runs out as we come in
In tattered clothes

Wherever the ocean whispers, you will see him one last time
Faintly smiling at the barest touch and asking why
Wishing that he could move on
And perhaps believe
There is no use in giving love
One more try

You will see him hide his sorrow, in the passion of a storm
Waiting for the softest hand that holds a sword
He would do anything for a chance
To kiss the very feet
That keeps his spirit in such unrest
And defeat

You can watch him row across the neverending ocean
With eyes which cannot see the likes of you
Your tender heart in your hand
Wishing he could move on and perhaps believe
There is reason to give love
One more chance

Wherever the ocean whispers, you will see him one last time
Faintly humming a melody he cannot forget
Wishing that he could move on
And perhaps believe
There is another who is singing
This same song

On your way to finding the secrets of life and all the lips
That have spoken into the setting sun
When reflection comes make sure you taste
With a mind that listens
To everyone

When you ride the ship where you feed your thirst
On wet roses,  make sure you find
All the broken hearts that have been drowned
In tears where you left them
Low and unkind

When you find your own heart is breaking in two
And you weep within your own strife
Perhaps you will find the reflection you see
Is what you have gained
Feeding on life

On your way to finding the secrets of life and all the lips
That have spoken into the setting sun
When reflection comes make sure you take care
To treasure the hearts
Of everyone

You are in all the corners and nooks of my heart
In the sand on all of my shores
You burn like a flame into all my dark valleys
Embracing my days and each step I take
Here you are and will remain
Forevermore

You are the one calling out from every dream
The one I hold each night in my sleep
Your breath is a touch of the sweetest dew
On the petals of my heart's flowers
That I wear in my hair
Here to keep

You flow like water, I breathe you in as pure air
Laced with an unconscious need
The love you have planted within my soul
Has scattered seed in all of my winds
Planting a beautiful garden
At my feet
