I want to feel you breathe, So cool and languid, A gentle rise and fall Of your sweet skin... Oh so calm and temperate Like the resting waters In the glassy fields At nightfall. I want to rest my head Against your flesh, Pale and cold like A cooling, winter sunset... And kiss your [cadaver] eyes All the while drifting lightly like ash Along the soft currents We are carried through. The tempest carries our bodies To the Sleepless Coventry As the Albatross flies Over head, leading and bleeding. The night with the eyes of water and Painted in decay, cries for The tragedy I wish to Live... And 'tis such a tragedy so, For I want to love you In the most ardent Sense, my darling. My sweet love, I wish to feel the fire inside your Heart to keep me warm in my coldest hour. My ocean soul covets the Warmth and the silent curves Of your tender body, becoming One with the waves... Like a lone kindling flame Beneath the sparkling waters, We burn together, attracting The teeming luminescent. Dearest lover, let us fall together into the sea... Hold me tight in your arms... And these lips will Caress your watery eyes, And bring you the loveliest Cloud of dreams. Hand in hand, We are Shadows by the stormy sea... Restless Shadows and the Sleepless Coventry.

Restless Shadows and the Sleepless Coventry
I want to feel you breathe, So cool and languid, A gentle rise and fall Of your sweet skin... Oh so calm and temperate Like the resting waters In the glassy fields At nightfall. I want to rest my head Against your flesh, Pale and cold like A cooling, winter sunset... And kiss your [cadaver] eyes All the while drifting lightly like ash Along the soft currents We are carried through. The tempest carries our bodies To the Sleepless Coventry As the Albatross flies Over head, leading and bleeding. The night with the eyes of water and Painted in decay, cries for The tragedy I wish to Live... And 'tis such a tragedy so, For I want to love you In the most ardent Sense, my darling. My sweet love, I wish to feel the fire inside your Heart to keep me warm in my coldest hour. My ocean soul covets the Warmth and the silent curves Of your tender body, becoming One with the waves... Like a lone kindling flame Beneath the sparkling waters, We burn together, attracting The teeming luminescent. Dearest lover, let us fall together into the sea... Hold me tight in your arms... And these lips will Caress your watery eyes, And bring you the loveliest Cloud of dreams. Hand in hand, We are Shadows by the stormy sea... Restless Shadows and the Sleepless Coventry.
