Beneath the turning spheres so vast and old
Where silent star-dust stories are foretold
A lonely hand a mark upon the sky
Traces a path where longing cannot die
Another shadow cast by distant sun
Repeats the ache of battles never won
Each dawn we rise each dusk we fade from view
Bound to this wheel forever old yet new
Through every age I call your name takes flight
A comet lost in everlasting night
Across the veil your whispered sigh I chase
A phantom warmth in this cold star-lit space
Oh woven close by hands we cannot see
Yet worlds apart where love can never be!
So near the dawn so deep the night descends
Lost lovers bound as time itself transcends
Stone steps where moss has claimed forgotten years
Reflect the weight of unshed ancient tears
A well deep thirst where echoes softly plead
For water clear a solace in our need
The silent wood its roots like chains held fast
To earth’s hard truth where fleeting dreams are cast
No gentle wind can lift this heavy shroud
We tread the maze forbidden and unbowed
Through every age I call your name takes flight
A comet lost in everlasting night
Across the veil your whispered sigh I chase
A phantom warmth in this cold star-lit space
Oh woven close by hands we cannot see
Yet worlds apart where love can never be!
So near the dawn so deep the night descends
Lost lovers bound as time itself transcends
Is this a blessing Or a silent curse
This constant thirst that makes the universe
A burning frozen field where hope is sown
On barren ground eternally alone
The pattern shifts the figures turn once more
Still separate souls upon this timeless shore
Through every age I call your name takes flight
A comet lost in everlasting night
Across the veil your whispered sigh I chase
A phantom warmth in this cold star-lit space
Oh woven close by hands we cannot see
Yet worlds apart where love can never be!
So near the dawn so deep the night descends
Will our threads ever cross When will this longing end
