|
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 stretch of human pain |
