Beauty and the Beast
|
Remember the first dance we shared?
|
Recall the night you melted my ugliness away?
|
The night you left with a kiss so kind
|
Only a send of beauty left behind
|
|
Ah dear friend I remember the night
|
The moon and the dreams we shared
|
Your trembling paw in my hand
|
Dreaming of that northern land
|
Touching me with a kiss of a beast
|
|
I know my dreams are made of you
|
Of you and only for you
|
Your ocean pulls me under
|
Your voice tears me asunder
|
Love me before the last petal falls
|
|
As a world without a glance
|
Of the ocean's fair expanse
|
Such the world would be
|
If no love did flow in thee
|
But as my heart is occupied
|
Your love for me now has to die
|
Forgive me I need more than you can offer me
|
|
Didn't you read the tale
|
Where happily ever after was to kiss a frog?
|
Don't you know this tale
|
In which all I ever wanted
|
I'll never have
|
For who could ever learn to love a beast?
|
|
However cold the wind and rain
|
I'll be there to ease your pain
|
However cruel the mirrors of sin
|
Remember beauty is found within
|
|
...Forever shall the wolf in me desire the sheep in you...
