Come Again

We come again at midnight, two souls now one
embraced, inhaling each other's scent
This is where I always long to be my love
all the hours that I am kept away
Not on some fantastic adventure without 
but to exist as nothing beside you
I believe in the power of love and in ours
let this faith sustain us when lips cannot

The day is breaking, beautiful as you are
I must arise to make ready the day
Sacrificed at the altar of security
Burden these shoulders gorgeous
let them sag with age
They tell the story of passion's priorities
they speak of us
