Now that we love
Now that the
Lonely nights
Are over
How do we make
Love stay?
Now that we know
The fire can
Burn bright
Or merely smolder
How do we keep it
From dying away?
Elusive as dreams
Barely remember
In the morning
Love
Like a phantom
Flies
But held in the heartt
It pales like the
Empty smile adoring
They stabbed you
With silent sighs
Moments fleet
Taste sweet
Within the rapture
When precious flesh
Is greedily consumed
But mystery's
A thing
Not easily captured
And once deceased
Not easily exhumed
Now that we love
Now that
The lonely nights
Are over
How do we make
Love stay?
Moments fleet
Taste so sweet
Within the rapture
When precious flesh
Is greedily consumed
But mystery's
A thing not
Easily captured
And once deceased
Not easily exhumed
Now that we love
Look at the
Moonless night
And tell me
How do we make
Love stay...?
