The shadow of a bird breaks the streetlight in my window The Ivy flowers are silent in the dark The night slides from her black dress: pure naked moonlight Shining on the silver of the barbed wire round my heart White petals falling through my soul The road leads on forever through the dark The stars weep down around us and the air beats like a wing Through my dreams you call to me my Love Baby sing me one last love song For the night is cold and lonesome Touch me in my brokenness For love is stronger than death You found me in the desert of the land of the dead Where there's no beauty and no love And we're all just naked little rats crawling underneath The cold lonely stars above The memory of the scent of winter roses Compassion and her echo: human love Light that isn't of this world descends by Grace to meet it While birds sing in the presence of the twilight grasses hush Baby sing me one last love song For the night is cold and lonesome Touch me in my brokenness For love is stronger than death I am just a ghost now But one time I was young The sun rose like an angel And the night was burning long And once we saw the light of God Just shining on the water In bars of red and dancing gold And pools of shining silver Baby sing me one last love song For the night is cold and lonesome Touch me in my brokenness For love is stronger than death Love is stronger than death Love is stronger than death
