Light As the Breeze

She stands before you naked

You can see it, you can taste it

And she comes to you light as the breeze

Now you can drink it or you can nurse it

It don't matter how you worship

As long as you're down on your kneesSo I knelt there at the delta

At the alpha and the omega

At the cradle of the river and the seas

And like a blessing come from Heaven

For something like a second

I was healed and my heart was at easeOh baby I waited

So long for your kiss

For something to happen

Oh something like thisAnd you're weak and you're harmless

And you're sleeping in your harness

And the wind going wild in the trees

And it ain't exactly prison

But you'll never be forgiven

For whatever you've done with the keysOh baby I waited

So long for your kiss

For something to happen

Oh something like thisIt's dark now and it's snowing

O my love I must be going

The river has started to freeze

And I'm sick of pretending

I'm broken from bending

I've lived too long on my kneesThen she dances so graceful

And your heart's hard and hateful

And she's naked but that's just a tease

And you turn in disgust

From your hatred and from your love

And she comes to you light as the breezeOh baby I waited

So long for your kiss

For something to happen

Oh something like this

Something like thisThere's blood on every bracelet

You can see it, you can taste it

And it's please baby, please baby, please

And she says, "Drink deeply, pilgrim

But don't forget there's still a woman

Beneath this resplendent chemise"So I knelt there at the delta

At the alpha and the omega

I knelt there like one who believes

And the blessings come from Heaven

And for something like a second

I'm cured and my heart is at ease
