Je Vous Attend

JE VOUS ATTEND Je vous attend, I wait for you, as patient as death's rendezvous; and just as certain as the sun knows each tomorrow's overdue. I wait well hid from anyone, the devil's hope, and native son, the gift of Hell, you'll not acquire, until it's yours, when life is done. Beyond each sunset's probing fire, deep in the dark of your desire, I wait to kiss all hope away, and give you more than you acquire. I wait for you beyond the day, into the night that will not stay, I wait in dark, your only friend, And I will love your death away, Deep in the night that has no end, I wait for you, je vous attend, Beyond the life you now pretend, Beyond the life you now pretend.
