If I were that forceful gust of wind That lifts feathers on the robin's breast, High above the clouds I'd carry you, To where Heaven flaunts its sacred crest --- Far beyond Earth's perils and torments, Where no angels glimpse a mortal guest
O, to be a swelling ocean wave! I would sweep the shore, drinking you in, Dragging you down to my very core, Showing you places you've never been; Sheltered we would be from peering eyes, Lest they judge our love, calling it sin
But I'm just a woman who loves you, No mystical powers do I command; I can unburden your heart from pain, Offering all the love that you demand; And when the night exhales its cold breath, There will be the warm clasp of my hand
Yes, I'm just a woman who loves you, I can't transcend my humanity; But I can illume your darkest hours, Bringing you peace and serenity; And if Divine mercy shall permit, I'll walk with you through eternity
