lyrics

How sweet were your sandalled feet
As I heard them come towards me in the evening streets?
By the gates of the sleeping town
Where we laid ourselves on the ground,
And I traced the fine curve of your spine through your skin.

And as we slept near the gathering hay and watched the clouds drift
away
The caress of the breeze so cool, the affection of the night…
Shedding tears like a fool.

And like honey rich your sweet skin running across my lips & tongue,
As clouds ran past the sun, and I glanced for a moment in fright…
Saw an inner-blinding light.

Under the apricot trees I aroused you,
There where your Mother had been in labour with you,
There where the pomegranates are in flower,
At the toll of the midnight hour…
And our love is stronger than death
