I gaze upon your valley,
And dream of bounty without
Measure, overflowing with
Honey and sugar, sweetness
And succor for every thirst
I gaze upon your valley,
And dream of bounty without
Measure, overflowing with
Honey and sugar, sweetness
And succor for every thirst
We want the same things
To be loved and seen
But I’m not enough
To fulfill your loss
Didn’t I try? And
Didn’t you prove how
Empty my love was?
We continue this
Tired dance, this way
And that; we don’t want
To leave, and don’t want
To stay, and so we
Shuffle endlessly.
Tell me you’re okay
Talk like you used to
Please reassure me
When you walk through these
Nasty, mean streets, please
Protect your sweet feet
In this transient life I
Lead, I treasure the moments,
As they slide through my fingers
A million hands that
Caress me, touch and
Treasure me; that’s love
You speak a language I have
Forgotten, move in ways that
Stir me like another life
I was beautiful
For one brief moment
When you looked at me
There is a balance
Between our worlds; thus this love
Cannot continue.
