Hymn for the Lover

I remember when you said you were full of sparks in your head Your words were fireworks in me I saw my firework in you I thought your skin was like a veil Concealing hope and fairytales and your hands were like a map from where many'll find their way back (at least I did) Through fire Through water Through death do us death do us part Through fire Through water Through death do us death do us part You showed me where the swans would nest You let the silence do the rest And in that room of pearly white I saw your darkness and your light! So when you get lost then I can find the architecture of your mind In quiet buildings you belong and I'll be there to sing this song: "Through fire Through water Through death do us death do us part Through rainbows Through rainfall Through floodstreams of tears! Through failure Through absence Through presence of human time! Through everything with love with love! Through fire Through water Through death do us death do us part"
