She has so many faces
Yet I wonder if I've seen one at all
I'm forever seeking through a world of mazes,
but she leaves me empty in the cold winds of Fall
I dream of her under a tainted moon:
In an all flat desert she is a dune
in an unseen oasis where the sun won't shine
So I kneel down and pray to gods not mine
I pray for light to caress her face
I would behold it in silence till the end of days
Her face fades to black and the dream slowly dies
And I curse the moon and her soul-tearing lies
In your eyes, only seen in dreams,
in your eyes lies the glint of Eden
It is written in a sky coloured crimson
by a sun which is forever sinking
It is written in a tear like a pale crystal
born from her eye of angelic cobalt
Her tender expression, her eyes filled with gold,
her angelic face and her movement so bold,
her magical presence burn hearts, numb or cold
Forgive my desire to reach out and hold you
You are my one and only reason to be
You are the one that has been in my dreams
You are my one and only reason to breathe
Let heaven deny me for you are all I need
When the stars are right I briefly catch a glimpse of you,
but as the sand slips through my fingers
Time tells me it's just another Phantom Angel
and after each Phantom Angel the pain grows
Then the I inside slowly fades away
Here I am
Can't you see me now?
Here I am,
standing right before you
Forgive my desire to behold the glint of Eden in your eye
