I'm putting a finger on your lips
My palms dry the petals of your skin
Why do you cry, my love?
Are you hurt by a dark dream?
Oh
You say you can't forget him.
I'll take your head inside my arms
Let the night howl away in storm
Memories of ice will fade away
Before our glowing warmth.
I have loved you for eons
Centuries have come and gone
My soul has decayed and rotten away
Only for you to come one day
And breathe life into my bones
And lend me your hand in friendship.
I could have kissed it
But it wasn't meant to be.
We could have ruled the world,
You and I
Our queenly graces fragrancing
The musty crowd of mediocrity
Our smiles aligned with
Stolen glances and butterflies fluttering.
But you waited for a king.
It is beyond my dreams
Beyond the margins of my senses
To be so much as be mad at you;
This love that I carry
Inside my porcelain heart
Can never be tainted with anger.
What more can I hope for
Than to wipe your silver tears
Bask in your moonshine
And love you for the sake of love?
Centuries will come and go
It barely matters any more
That you can't be mine.
