Mystery of Love

The city gates at twilight

And a red ship sinking

Behind winters gray wall

Ice in the windBut a fire in the embers of my heart as darkness falls

In a candlelit room where your eyes are laughing

Smoking on the red chair and nothing in the world

'Cept the beating of my heart against the nerves of the airAnd I know theres a light at the end of the tunnel

Cause I taste it on your lips and I feel a weight

That can bend me double

You lift it with your fingertipsSo often it happens that words prove useless

In the face of how it feels

So it is as the mystery of love keeps growing

The more my heart revealsTemptations endless whispers

Try to keep it in perspective so much to distract

Walking on a wire while your juggling desire

It's all part of this balancing actAnd it gets hard to know just what you believe

As the argument rages on

But for all of the talk, it's only true to say

That if you have no hope, there is noneA tangle of tongues, flesh flowers and thistles

Of conscience, spittle and skin

And we can't change the past

So well raise this cup to our lips and drink it all inAnd meantime back in civilization

The rain is cold as steel

But the mystery of love, it just keep growing

The more my heart revealsAs sure as the rose, the bright day blooms

As surely still it fades

And the night kindles stars on empty winds

And ghosts along the colonnadesAnd slow but sure the sands are falling

As the bridge burns beneath the wheel

And the mystery of love, it just keeps growing

The more my heart revealsThe more my heart reveals

The more my heart reveals

The more my heart reveals
