My Love, You are the dream That bids me sleep And the morning To which I rise... This day, I become yours-- Not as possession, But to hold That I may dance, hold me loosely As the air embracing a flame If I should shake, hold me surely As an Angel guarding my soul Come to me with your laughter That I might touch your heaven Reach for me in your sorrow That I may help slay the demon From this day forward You are harmony to my song My only love, You are the dream That whispers, follow-- And the sun Which bids me wake... --dgvarner "i speak in written word--my lips, no sound may utter..." dgvarner |
