don't let the curtain fall till i've played my parts
blazing stars and bleeding hearts
eyes full of darkness, tongue full of love
a body below and a garden above
hands full of fire, head full of sex
the mountain is still and the ocean reflects
don't let this end before i can begin
a body without and a garden within
