A Love Song from Somewhere, Inspired by Someone

Flesh and blood 
Need breath and bone 
Earth and sea
Crave wind and stone 

Where's the fire
That holds us close 
Inside the warmth 
I yearn to know

The river flows inside the earth 
Whose heart has found its only hearth
The home and end it knows for sure 
The depth it seeks, the ocean pure

Tell me what I need to know 
I ask you now because you show 
A face I so want to trust 
I love so hard it turns to dust 
Cuz dust, it seems, you seem to know
With broken eyes and broken dreams 
You see the depths I seem to see 
Your voice it just unravels me 

A voice so pure the Angels hear
And always sing beside you, dear 
The pain will drown in blessed tears 
And offer faith beside the fear 

I want to shout your name out loud 
Hold my heart and pound it proud
I yearn to search your soul so sweet
And find the tendons held so deep
So when they loosen, we may find 
A space that drips with fire and wine 

A sweet and honey dew that's new 
Reminds me of the breath that's you
I've always dreamt to kiss those lips 
That hold me like a lover's grip 

So bind me now as I am bound 
Already in my depths you're found 
Kiss me once, you'll never stray 
For we were meant to be this way
