Once upon a time I was drawn
To a light of a kind unknown
Revealed only in the dim of the night
True witness of a miracle
Leaving me breathless as beauty
Was softly calling upon me
A secret so preciously brought
A jewel pure and vulnerable
In a box that unfolds with trust
As love is weaved and truth whispered
When two souls lighting up in gold
Alter the color of the world
It was the brutal light of day
The rhythm that takes us away
That steals our eyes into the fog
And wraps a cage around our hearts
That makes us flee as one hopes to escape
The violence of the world
The more I reached the more you ran
And just one morning you were gone
Eaten away by a ferocious fear
And I could never again have you near
Cause it was wider than your hopes
And stronger than your dreams
I’ve looked in your heart for a breach
My hands got lost trying to reach
But at night I squeeze my eyelids
Like a child wishing for a dream
To unfold this treasure again
So I would never love the same
I wish I’d go back to that room
When we were all precious and bloom
And I would sleep there forever
Melt in fusion into one another
And I would take your hand in mine
Until the end of time
