"The Kiss" lyrics

"The Kiss"

Love rising from the mists
Promise me this and only this
Holy breath touching me like a wind song
Sweet communion of a kiss

Sun sifting through the gray
Enter in, reach me with a ray
Silently swooping down, just to show me
How to give my heart away

Once a crystal choir appeared
While I was sleeping and called my name
And when they came down nearer, saying, "Dying is done,"
Then a new song was sung until somewhere we breathed as one
And still I hear their whisper

Stars bursting in the sky
Hear the sad nova's dying cry
Shimmering memory, come and hold me
While you show me how to fly

Sun sifting through the gray
Enter in, reach me with a ray
Silently swooping down, just to show me
How to give my heart away

Lately sparkling hosts come fill my dreams
Descending on fiery beams
I've seen 'em come clear down where our poor bodies lay
Soothe us gently and say, "Gonna wipe all your tears away"
And still I hear their whisper

Love, rising from the mists
Promise me this and only this
Holy breath touching me like a wind song
Sweet communion of a kiss
