Feel my heartbeat, gather flowers to spread with the breeze
Forever entwined in each other's arms that never cease to caress
Hold your breath, drink the kiss, the wine of the sun
But again it will pass, the flickering drowned by the darkness of night
The wine of the sun, how long will it last
Forgotten the days, the fever it still burns inside but you're numb
The pain of your life, the time will ever and ever flow on
...flow on...
Don't strangle your heart, but there are things we must learn to accept
Never give up, the shadows can never be cast without light
But who would think of shadows in heavens of bliss?
Where all I crave is the touch of your hands and a kiss...
Down from your clouds
I call upon your reason
Look back on your life - how many kisses and how many scars
The wine of the sun, is it but poison that flows through your heart?
At the gate of dawn inverted you stand with your life in your hands
The pain that you spread, beware the dusk that will turn on your soul
Down from your clouds
I call upon your reason
Open your eyes
And see your self-deceit
