lyrics

RUN ALONG THE VINE GROWN PATH, WHILE FIREFLIES ACT OUT SERENITIES DANCE
ON A STAGE LAST KNOWN BY THE SORROW OF TWO LOST GHOSTS NOW WANDERING ALONE

I WILL SEARCH, I WILL SEARCH ALL THE WRECKS IN THE DEEP
EVERY INCH OF EACH PLANET TILL YOU CROSS PATHS WITH ME ONCE AGAIN

HELP ME PLEASE, OLD GRAND CARTOGRAPHER. DON’T TOY WITH THE ANSWER.
MY PATIENCE IS STARTING TO RUN THIN.

MY GUIDE HAS JUMPED SHIP QUOTING OLD RHETORIC
SAYING SOME SOULS ARE LOST SOULS THAT CANNOT BE SAVED
SO STOP WASTING MY TIME
BUT I CANNOT, I WILL NOT, I SHALL NOT BE SATISFIED UNTIL OUR ETERNITIES INTERTWINE

WHAT IS THIS? A NECKLACE AND A RING, THAT CAN ONLY MEAN ONE THING
IS IT LUCK OR DID YOU KNOW I’D LOOK HERE?
ONWARD I GO, ONWARD I ROAM THROUGH FIELDS OF FIRES AND CATACOMBS
IS THIS JUST A TEST, IS IT ALL JUST A TEST?
WHEN I FINALLY GET THROUGH WILL I FIND YOU AT LAST MY LOVE?
WHEN WILL I FIND YOU MY LOVE?

IS THIS REAL OR INSANE? ARE MY EYES PLAYING GAMES?
AS EVERY INCH OF YOUR BODY COMES BACK IN TO FRAME.
OH DEAR ME. COULD IT BE?

NOW WE KISS, AS A NECKLACE AND A RING SHIMMER IN THE SPRING
I SPIN YOU AROUND THROUGH THE UNKNOWN
ONWARD WE GO, ONWARD WE ROAM LOST IN A FEELING SO FAMILIAR
YOUR HANDS ON MY CHEST, OUR BODIES AT REST
I FOUND YOU MY DEAREST, I FOUND YOU AT LAST MY LOVE
I FINALLY FOUND YOU MY LOVE.
