'plumb the depths'
______________________
I. (slow melody begins in G minor)
i cannot fathom the sound soul you seem to wear when i’m near,
perpendicular passion without fear-
for the depths are not deep enough to measure our love,
my dear-
we share a rare connection,
of honor and affection-
a vow no other lover can speak of...
sent from above
______
CHORUS
you made an exact mark on my heart,
and it bleeds love for NONE but you-
you saw in me things i never thought you knew-
always and forever have been drawn,
your soft heart i stumbled upon-
autumn vows
of
thens and nows;
no ruler needed…
with a love deep seeded
______
II. (switches to faster melody)
we are created from divine inspiration,
loving me with all your adoration-
weigh me in your arms,
for i am ethereal and light-
sought only by your sight,
delicate like lullaby scents,
no, love never makes sense,
gentle like spring combing rose petals-
like a feather i brush up against your soft tan skin...
and ignite the fire of passion within
______
CHORUS
you made an exact mark on my heart,
and it bleeds love for none but you-
you saw in me things i never thought you knew-
always and forever have been drawn,
your soft heart i stumbled upon-
autumn vows
of
thens and nows;
no ruler needed…
with a love deep seeded
______
(melody plays for 25 seconds)
______
(switches back to slower melody)
a flawless direct line to my life has been drawn,
i drift o’er eastern skies of our silhouettes -
for you are my medallion dawn,
a sunrise no one forgets…
no, the depths are not deep enough to measure our love,
we share a rare connection,
of honor and affection-
a promise with faith no other can speak of…
yes, a promise of faith,
no other love,
can speak of - - -
you made an exact mark on my heart…
and...
it bleeds for NONE but you
(ends in F minor)
