I am not yours, not lost in you, not lost, although I long to be.
Lost as a candle lit at noon, lost as a snowflake in the sea.
You love me, and I find you still a spirit beautiful and bright,
Yet I am I, who long to be lost as a light is lost in light.
Oh plunge me deep in love -
put out my senses, leave me deaf and leave me blind,
swept by the tempest of your love,
a taper in a rushing wind.
Lost as a candle lit at noon, lost as a snowflake in the sea.
You love me, and I find you still a spirit beautiful and bright,
Yet I am I, who long to be lost as a light is lost in light.
Oh plunge me deep in love -
put out my senses, leave me deaf and leave me blind,
swept by the tempest of your love,
a taper in a rushing wind.
