If death is sweet release
I pray for more time
in your embrace to ever lie
bound in rapturous pain

No angelic choir sings
my soul remains to slumber
drowning only in you
I am your everlasting hostage

My soul quivers at a touch
my heart your crimson harp
I sing only for you
captured for all time

No peaceful promises
I choose love's eternal flame
you are my desire incarnate
I smolder in your embrace
