Before We Embrace the Night

I will come for you, I will walk you home When evening light bathes the tree trunks in gold I will be with you, you'll not be alone And your sweet soft palms in mine I will hold Together, our arms entwined, will we stride The busy streets of Unity Gardens Just as on the aisle with you as my bride And casting away all our life burdens As a worshipper adores a wild god So shall I, your countenance my delight And till pale stars shine, love's ship let's aboard Then glowing, you'll mirror the gloamings light Before we embrace the night sweet honey, On love's wings we'll fly a heaven's journey
