Only Human

you told me everything I longed to hear

you brought the sky down 

that I might feel her constellations

the wild winds were moving, ecstatic visions came

mystic phrases revealing every inch of her temptation

you showed me a dream that I’d long forgot

a garden so rare, her flowers restored my innocence

for a moment it seemed our souls were being brought

together to give form to the ones who lives were to be born from our love 

and I was only human  

I could not resist

I was only human   

longing for bliss 

just a hot blooded woman

what am I to do

a part of me still waits for you

in that garden under the moon

once I was a believer in stories of great love

designs of a feverish light on eyes of giants

where ancient flames were rising, fashioned as twins

well babe I’ve had soul mate or two

but damn I thought you might be it

and I was only human

I could not resist

I was only human

longing for bliss

just a hot blooded woman

what am I to do

a part of me still waits for you

in that garden under the moon 

holy wild revive me

all of this emotion and writhing beauty

prophecies unbind me I can only keep

a secret for so long

and I was only human

I could not resist

I was only human

longing for bliss

just a hot blooded woman

what am I to do

a part of me still waits for you

under the moon
