light as the breeze

she stands before you naked

you can see it

you can taste it

but she comes to you

light as the breeze

you can drink or you can nurse it

it don't matter how you worship

as long as you're

down on your knees

so i knelt there at the delta

at the alpha and the omega

at the craddle 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 ease

o baby i waited

so long for your kiss

for something to happen

oh - something like this

and you're weak and you're harmless

and you're sleeping in you harness

and the wind going wild

in the trees

and it's not exactly prision

but you'll never be forgiven

for whatever you've done

with the keys

o baby i waited

so long for your kiss

for something to happen

oh - something like this

it's dark and it's snowing

oh my love i must be going

the river is starting to freeze

and i'm sick of pretending

i'm broken from bending

i've lived too long

on my knees

and 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 breeze

o baby i waited

so long for your kiss

for something to happen

oh - something like this

there'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 omega

i knelt there

like one who believes

and like a blessing come from heaven

for something like a second

i was cured

and my heart

was at ease

o baby i waited

so long for your kiss

for something to happen

oh - something like this
