Mystery of Love

Lyrics

Oh, to see without my eyes
 The first time that you kissed me
 Boundless by the time I cried
 I built your walls around me
 White noise, what an awful sound
 Fumbling by Rogue River
 Feel my feet above the ground
 Hand of God, deliver me
 Oh, oh woe-oh-woah is me
 The first time that you touched me
 Oh, will wonders ever cease?
 Blessed be the mystery of love
 ♪
 Lord, I no longer believe
 Drowned in living waters
 Cursed by the love that I received
 From my brother's daughter
 Like Hephaestion, who died
 Alexander's lover
 Now my riverbed has dried
 Shall I find no other?
 Oh, oh woe-oh-woah is me
 I'm running like a plover
 Now I'm prone to misery
 The birthmark on your shoulder reminds me
 ♪
 How much sorrow can I take?
 Blackbird on my shoulder
 And what difference does it make
 When this love is over?
 Shall I sleep within your bed?
 River of unhappiness
 Hold your hands upon my head
 'Til I breathe my last breath
 Oh, oh woe-oh-woah is me
 The last time that you touched me
 Oh, will wonders ever cease?
 Blessed be the mystery of love
 
 Oh, to see without my eyes
 The first time that you kissed me
 Boundless by the time I cried
 I built your walls around me
 White noise, what an awful sound
 Fumbling by Rogue River
 Feel my feet above the ground
 Hand of God, deliver me
 Oh, oh woe-oh-woah is me
 The first time that you touched me
 Oh, will wonders ever cease?
 Blessed be the mystery of love

 Lord, I no longer believe
 Drowned in living waters
