Song of Songs 2:1-7

I’ve been groovin’ a long time
Time to make my love
To see that she is mine
Givin’ her all my feelings
Given too much time
I have been alone

Say there
What have I done wrong
For our love
To take so long
Times I have waited
Times I have died
I have been alone

Say it now
Tell me
What I am to do
Seem that that can’t
Get through to you
Given too much feeling
Given too much time
I have been alone

From the highways and jungles
The dragons came down
To bribed me with diamonds
To bribe me with crowns
To bribe me with crowns
They wanted to know
Just what I believed
I ran away laughing
When they let me leave
They let me leave
I ran to the mountains
I fell into caves
I met all the witches
In their black parades
Oh, their black parades
One spoke of the anvil
One spoke of the stake
They bound me with spells
That I could not break

And I’m running
Oh, running
I’ve got to escape – I’m runnin’
I know I’m too late
I’m runnin’
Oh, yeah

In fear of these cliffs
I fell back to the streets
These flames at my head
Ah, these flames at my feet
Flames at my feet
The pied piper screamed
You know it’s coming soon
I asked him what is it
He pointed to the moon
And I’m running
Oh, running
I’ve got to escape – I’m runnin’
I know I’m too late
I’m runnin’
Oh, yeah

The hustler and thief
They were very discrete
Made it quite clear
That we should never meet
Oh, never should meet
But the games are all stolen
They own only fear
Each walked into mirrors
And both disappeared

And I’m running
Oh, running
I’ve got to escape – I’m runnin’
I know I’m too late
I’m runnin’
Oh, yeah

The streets are just skeletons
They gnaw at my skull
I can’t be too sure
If there's anything there at all
Anything there at all
I’d ask the man that just set up his booth
But I’m afraid he might tell me the truth

And I’m running
Oh, running
I’ve got to escape – I’m runnin’
I know I’m too late
I’m runnin’
Oh, yeah

No matter what you feel
You got to feel from within
And everyday you wake
You wonder how you're gonna feel
Let me say to you
If you feel it from within
You make it easy for the one you love to reach you

No matter how you try
You're gonna fall a few times
And after all the bad has settled down in your soul
Let me say to you
If you feel it from within
You make it easy for the one you love to reach you

Down to my soul
Down to my knees
Let me say to you
If you feel it from within
You make it easy for the one you love to reach you


Down to my soul
Down to my heart
Down to my knees

Your eyes - beams like sunlight - on the gull's wing
and the leaves - dance and play - after you
Take my hand - and hold it - as you would a flower
take care with my heart - oh darling - she's made of glass

Your eyes - feel like sunlight - resting on me
and the birds - cease to sing - when you rise
Ride easy - your fairy stallion - you have mounted
take care how you fly - my precious - you might fall down

In the pastel - shaded of sunlight - skies I have wandered
with my eyes and ears and heart - strained to the full
I know I tasted the essence - in those few days
take care who you love - oh, darling - he might not know

You may not be as strong as me
And I may not care to teach you
It may be hard to keep up with me
But I'll always be able to reach you
And if you go forward (if you go forward)
I'll meet you there
And if you climb up through the cold, freezing air
Look down below you; search out above
And cry out to life for a frozen love
Cry, love

Life gave me you; yeah, the change was made
And there's no beginning over
You are not happy, but what is love?
Hate gave you me for a lover...
And if you go forward (if you go forward)
I'll meet you there
And if you climb up through the cold, freezing air
Look down below you; search out above
And cry out to life for a frozen love
Cry, love

You may not be (You may not be)
As strong as me (as strong as me)
And I may not care (I may not care)
To teach you (to teach you)
It may be hard (It may be hard)
To keep up with me (to keep up with me)
But I'll always...
Yes, I'm always going to be able to reach you
And if you go forward (if you go forward)
I'll meet you there
And if you climb up through the cold, freezing air
Look down below you; search out above
And cry out to life for a frozen love
Cry, love
