"One Last Love Song" lyrics

The shadow of a bird breaks the streetlight in my window
The Ivy flowers are silent in the dark
The night slides from her black dress: pure naked moonlight
Shining on the silver of the barbed wire round my heart
White petals falling through my soul
The road leads on forever through the dark
The stars weep down around us and the air beats like a wing
Through my dreams you call to me my Love

Baby sing me one last love song
For the night is cold and lonesome
Touch me in my brokenness
For love is stronger than death

You found me in the desert of the land of the dead
Where there's no beauty and no love
And we're all just naked little rats crawling underneath
The cold lonely stars above
The memory of the scent of winter roses
Compassion and her echo: human love
Light that isn't of this world descends by Grace to meet it
While birds sing in the presence of the twilight grasses hush

Baby sing me one last love song
For the night is cold and lonesome
Touch me in my brokenness
For love is stronger than death

I am just a ghost now
But one time I was young
The sun rose like an angel
And the night was burning long
And once we saw the light of God
Just shining on the water
In bars of red and dancing gold
And pools of shining silver

Baby sing me one last love song
For the night is cold and lonesome
Touch me in my brokenness
For love is stronger than death
Love is stronger than death
Love is stronger than death
