Now that we love
|
Now that the lonely nights are over
|
How do we make love stay?
|
|
Now that we know
|
The fire can burn bright or nearly smolder
|
How do we keep it from dying away?
|
|
Lucid as dreams
|
Barley remembered in the morning
|
Love like a phantom lights
|
But held in the heart
|
It builds like the empty smile adorning
|
A statue with sightless eyes
|
|
Moments fleet is sweet within the rapture
|
When precious flesh is greedily consumed.
|
But mystery's a thing not easily captured
|
And once deceased, not easily exhumed
|
|
Now that we love
|
Now that the lonely nights are over
|
How do we make love stay?
|
|
Moments fleet are so sweet within the rapture
|
When precious flesh is greedily consumed
|
Mystery's a thing not easily captured
|
And once deceased, not easily exhumed.
|
|
Now that we love
|
Look at the moonless night & tell me
|
How do we make love stay?
