Track 9 | Footprint | Bruce Stephen Foster
If I knew you well enough, I’d sing a sad song just to see you cry
And if I knew myself, I’d love you and never wonder why
If I had the time to give, I’d see the world growing in your eyes
And only you would know the secrets of a world before it dies
And so I want you, I want you more than anything
You know I need you. I need you so
I could speak for the world
Spin with the heavens
Be deep as the truth
Caress for the ocean
You’ll moan with the wind
Sing for a reason
To give
Making love is just a word, and taking love is just a way of life
In writhing ecstacy, you’re trembling like a lamb before a knife
Marble stone to chill your soul, the sea and sky to brush against your skin
In sacred ceremony, witnessing the world that lies within
And so I want you
I want you more than anything
You know I need you, I need you so
I’d be strong as desire
Glow like your lantern
Be warm as a thrill
Hard as our passion
We’ll flow drenched with love
Sleep when we come to the end
