Lyrics

Verse I Your name was waiting in my breath Like smoke beneath the skin I carried you in quiet blood Long before you walked in I should have turned from what I knew But time had marked us in Refrain I would follow through the night Where no bright mercy stays I would lay my mortal light At the altar of your gaze If loving you undoes my soul Then let it end this way Verse II Your touch is older than my fear It knows me bone and bone They speak of you as ruin here But I have seen your own If dawn must tear us into dust Let dust remember stone Bridge (Oath) If heaven seals its doors to us Still I will not depart I press my trembling human pulse Against your deathless heart What we have loved in shadowed hours No dawn can pull apart Final Reprise I would follow through the dark Though no dawn calls my name I would hide your dying spark Inside my mortal frame If loving you must cost me all I would love you...just the same
