Quietly you move around Careful not to make a single sound I hear you say Bend your ear and I will speak Of inexpressible things you must not repeat To keep me from conceit There was sent a messenger to torment me Three times I plead take this away But I took my seat; I won’t get burned in the center of your flame
In this hour We share these sufferings
All my mind all my strength This love is balanced on the brink of eternity And it feels so close to me All my heart all my soul I’m not letting go It’s so beautiful, beautiful Beautiful to me
No confidence put in the flesh That’s not what I’m called to do If it takes my whole life If it takes my whole life You can have this life It’s no good without you
Here’s to the sorrow A toast in your honor What else can I do Cheers to the lonely road less traveled I lift this glass to you And all the temptations in dangerous proportions That we were destined for
In this hour The light you bring This dark hour We share these sufferings
All this time I’ve been wasting You’re beautiful
