Lyrics
crossing courtyards worn by time
fragrance of a garden comes
I discern the element
that once went with a pledge
it pulls me from my coverlet
and through the arches I commence
to make my way upon the greens
along the terrace edge
yet past the scented flower beds
I hear a song as favored as
a red rose in my lover's hand
the draw is toward the sea
and in the moonlight I take steps
slow-dancing to the melody lent
knowing all the love that's meant
in music I will breathe
before my lips can even shape
the wonder of your name
my kisses seek you desperately
I feel my life reclaimed
and though my memory held you well
far tides had troubled me
I was saved by love itself
in waves it sang to me
I have you lying by my side
the moon and lover's sea
I'm aware of everything
that love's allowed to be
we ellipse and feel complete
I'm breathing what love means
and to my lungs I draw it deep
immersed in love that sings
I have you lying by my side
the moon and lover's sea
I'm aware of everything
that love's allowed to be
we ellipse and feel complete
I'm breathing what love means
and to my lungs I draw it deep
immersed in love that sings
and in the moonlight we take steps
slow dancing to the melody lent
knowing all the love that's meant
in music we will breathe
