Oh, does the blood
that flows in your veins
warm your heart for the love of me.
Oh, when I wonder
along a dark moon lit shore
if thoughts of love for me
live within
or does within your breat
that temple of beauty so pure
live a numb and nameless
a lump of cold and loveless ice.
Oh, lend ear to me
to hear the plea
" have mercy upon one
such as me".
For love that lives
within the heart of the soul
lives forever
within an eternal soul.
Oh, but for one
who never loves
that soul is but a dead
unborn thing
whose eyes shall never see
and those ears shall never hear
and fingers never feel
for the life of the body
is but a illusion that quickly passes away
as dust blowing in the wind.
Oh, let us live
as one eternal soul
in timeless embrace
that outlives the stars
that ever shine
in the high vault of heaven.
