She was a tempest
|
Her beauty a storm
|
Oh her eyes they were filled with the sun
|
She would dance while I played her my songs
|
The earth stood while she danced alone
|
|
He was a tempest
|
His craving a storm
|
He lusted her body from deep in the grove
|
Enraptured or captured
|
Betrayed or betrothed
|
She would be his
|
She’d be his alone
|
|
So she ran, oh she ran from the satyr’s chase
|
She ran for her love and her life
|
She tred on a snake
|
Venom replaced both the beat of her heart and the song in mine
|
The beat of her heart and the song in mine
|
|
The music was morning
|
A requiem cry
|
I wept with my songs for the love of my life
|
It broke all the hearts of the gods in the skies
|
I played my guitar and the earth opened wide
|
|
How I played, oh I played in the underworld
|
Oh, I played for my love and her life
|
Oh, I pled with the gods
|
Give her back
|
Give a beat to her heart and a song to mine
|
The beat of her heart and the song in mine
|
|
Hades responded, a glint in his eye
|
I grant you your plea
|
You may leave with your wife
|
With one small request
|
I suggest you obey
|
You musn’t look back as you walk away
|
|
So we ran oh we ran to the dawning light
|
Oh we ran for our love and our lives
|
Once again I would hear the sweet sound of the beat of her heart
|
And the song in mine
|
The beat of her heart and the song in mine
|
|
My mind was a tempest
|
My doubt was a storm
|
I turned back to see
|
She really had come
|
Just as our eyes met
|
She faded from sight
|
That’s when I knew I would never find
|
The beat of her heart or the song in mine
|
|

The Beat Of Her Heart
