Light As The Breeze

She stands before you nakedYou can see it, you can taste itBut she comes to youLight as the breezeYou can drink or you can nurse itIt don't matter how you worshipAs long as you'reDown on your kneesSo I knelt there at the deltaAt the alpha and the omegaAt the cradle of the riverAnd the seasAnd like a blessing come from heaven,For something like a second,I was healed, and my heartWas at easeO baby I waitedSo long for your kissFor something to happenOh - something like thisAnd you're weak and you're harmlessAnd you're sleeping in your harnessAnd the wind going wildIn the treesAnd it's not exactly prisonBut you'll never be forgivenFor whatever you've doneWith the keysO baby I waitedSo long for your kissFor something to happenOh - something like thisIt's dark and it's snowingOh my love I must be goingThe river is starting to freezeAnd I'm sick of pretendingI'm broken from bendingI've lived too longOn my kneesAnd she dances so gracefulAnd your heart's hard and hatefulAnd she's nakedBut that's just a teaseAnd you turn in disgustFrom your hatred and from your loveAnd she comes to youLight as the breezeO baby I waitedSo long for your kissFor something to happenOh - something like thisThere's blood on every braceletYou can see it, you can taste itAnd it's please babyPlease baby pleaseAnd she says, drink deeply, pilgrimBut don't forget there's still a womanBeneath thisResplendent chemiseSo I knelt at the deltaAt the alpha and the omegaI knelt thereLike one who believesAnd like a blessing come from heavenFor something like a secondI was cured, and my heartWas at easeO baby I waitedSo long for your kissFor something to happenOh - something like this
