I wish I were a tear
Born in your eyes
Lived on your cheek
Died on your lips
Some say the world will end in fire
Some say 't will end in ice
I side with those who favor fire
That fire within your eyes
As the days go by
Each of us
Slowly gives away
Little pieces of who we are
We give of ourselves
To family
To friends
To people we
Don't even know
But always inside
We keep a special little piece
Until one day
In one given moment
We know to whom it belongs
And in giving away this peace of ourselves
We are now complete
Grant me
The serenity
To accept the things I cannot change
The courage
To change the things I can
And the wisdom
To know
The difference
The clouds had made a crimson crown
Above the mountains high
The stormy sun was going down
In a stormy sky
Why did you let your eyes so rest on me
And hold your breath between
In all the ages this can never be
As if it had not been
When true love burns desire is love's pure flame
It is the reflex of our earthly frame
That takes its meaning from the nobler part
And but translates the language of the heart
This living hand now warm and capable
Of earnest grasping, would, if it were cold
And in the icy silence of the tomb
So haunt thy days and chill thy dreaming nights
That thou wouldst wish thine own heart dry of blood
So in my veins red life might stream again
And though be conscience calmed - see here it is
I hold it towards you
