Upon This Day (Eurydice) |

| The golden winged butterfly
flutters by her hair. One-thousand lullabyes sing through her eyes without speaking I listen Down from the whitest cloud that may have once held heaven she comes wandering on the hand of love. I've lost my eyes but I see her around me Up from the bottomless pit that may have once held a lion she comes roaring but so gently I've lost all sound but I hear her I've caught her stealing from the treasure so long been sacred she buys her forgiveness with sunlight from her hair. I'll take her forever and ever And like the green summer leaves the morning's rain left crying I'll catch the teardrops left flowing from her eyes I'm wondering about her And she comes running into my chamber maybe frightened she begs me to warm her and we melt into love. I've touched her with silence around us. I've found us and we gaze upon the earth as we would a flower flower.....flower....yea |
