In my dream I had a lover
Who loved me more than you do
Until death, he said, but not in this life
I'm keeping a promise to another

I awoke to the greatest heartache
Everyone knows what it feels like
A loneliness so firm and infinite
Sharp ambition tailspin wake

We are afraid - we cower before each other
Our potential power muted by ego
If we could let go and be bold
Accepting our faults like weather

If we could give rather than keep
If we could hold each other in sleep
