Greetings from the Goddess of Love...
Story behind the song
I had a meeting with Aphrodite and i asked her; 'why did you fail me?'...
Lyrics
I had a meeting with Aphrodite
And I asked her; why did you fail me?
And Aphrodite answered, clear-eyed;
"I am just a deity, and I failed you on instructions from
a higher power than me".
My time was fleeting with Aphrodite
So I asked her, couldn't she help me?
And she answered, clear and breathless -
"You require too much of me;
Oh, I do my best to help you! But there's a
Greater Force than me..."
"It's self-defeating when you invite me;
You can ask for love, but there's no guarantee...
and when you worship me too fervently
I cannot help at all, for the true object of your ardor is
a Higher Power than we."
I bid you: Greetings from Aphrodite!
The Goddess of Love hears your entreaty,
but she respectfully reminds you,
she is just an emissary....
With her efforts superceded by
The Ultimate Authority.
