Love is the dream that would sing in the heart

touching the silk of a smile

softly caressing the leaves of desire

teasing the senses to feelings divine

and yet, can I hold you and make you all mine

for all would know when your near

silently squeezing the madness of time

choking the raindrops of shadowy tears...

Oh love in my heart, the giver of truth

believer of all that is real

graceful and dancing on liberty fields

peeping on treasures, all eyes would steal

have I seen you dancing away on the wind

laughing with clouds through the skies

touching the heavens, celestial dreams

calling my name in a sweet lullaby...

For without you I'm nothing and drift on the sands

collecting the pain from the wind

listening to daydreams alive alive o'

counting the virtues wrapped tight in lost sins ...

Oh love , would you dangle so sweet in my heart

how did you change all I see

the blossom fell slowly, the dagger so sharp

the darkness came quickly when daylight was free...

Love, I still love you, for how could I not

aching and sadly beguiled

twisting and turning,  forever be mine

love,  would you come here and stay for a while

Oh love, would you touch me...stay for a while...
