Lead me

Let me breathe in your life,
live in your heart forever
Bathe in your soul and feed on your love

Take me away from this dark desolate world,
free me from these bonds, that strangle my limbs,
that tear my flesh

Lead me,
beyond this darkness
Lead me,
into your light

Teach me to walk and I shall find my way to you
Teach me to speak and I shall only speak of our love
Teach me to hear, so that I may listen to the beating of your heart

I love you
as the sun loves the African skies
as the great oceans love the sands.
I shall hold you
as the trees hold the heavens in their mighty palms
I shall walk with you,
beyond this world
beyond this life

When that majestic sun sets upon me
when those mighty trees are ripped from the earth's womb
When the oceans run dry
and our bodies melt into the wind
thats where I shall love you,
love you, forever more
