Recieve Me

Dawn, receive me as I am,
in my interpretation 
what has happened is a sham.
Release your heart to me
and meet me on the farther shore

What further grief could I know?
than to see tears in blue eyes,
I feel that our love could grow,
it's been written in the skies.

I remember what you say to me,
it's those lying eyes I fear,
don't break what you would take from me,
don't let love disappear.

Dawn, ride in on your dark horse
save me from this nightmare,
I'll be waiting there of course,
with stars for your hair.

I'll steal the stars from the sky,
to dissatisfy the moon,
I'll be waiting don't you cry,
I'll be home to you real soon.
