Move away from the window and into the light
|
There are some things in this life that you just can't fight
|
It's as if the spirits above have cast a little spell upon us
|
It's as if heaven above is beckoning us
|
So let us take off our crosses and lay them in a tin
|
And let our weakness become virtue instead of sin
|
Our bodies stand naked as the day they were born
|
And tremble like animals before a coming storm
|
|
Take me beyond love
|
Up to something above
|
Upon this bed, between these sheets
|
Take me to a happiness beyond human reach
|
|
The force of life is rushing through our veins
|
In and out like the tide it comes in waves
|
The drops of semen and the clots of blood
|
Which may, one day, become like us
|
With outstretched hands reaching beyond love
|
And up to something above
|
|
Before our juices run cold and our flesh grows old
|
Let me feed upon your breast and draw closer to your soul
|
Let me stay with you tonight and I'll offer you my world
|
I'll take you to the angels if you'll take me to myself
|
|
Take me beyond love
|
Up to something above
|
Upon this bed, between these sheets
|
Take me to a happiness beyond human reach
|
|
Beyond the grasp of lust
|
Beyond the need for trust
|
Beyond the gaze of the sick and the lame
|
Beyond the stench of human pain
|
