Kathy Mar I Drink Your Eyes Lyrics

I Drink Your Eyes Lyrics

I drink your eyes;



They drown me as I drink.



My catch-breath heart



Begins to twirl and sink.



The blood-fire dance begins,



In tempest-touch we mesh.



Your flaming fingertips



Caress my fire-flesh.







I drink your eyes;



In drunken love I sway.



Our bodies share



The clamor of the clay;



And, like a butterfly,



I'm pinned beneath your gaze.



I reach to touch your mouth,



And all my senses blaze.







Bridge:	 Flash-paper song,



	 Born of the skin,



	 Sings to the soul



	 Sighing within.



	 Flash-paper peak,



	 Lost in a cry,



	 Burning to live;



	 Learning to die.







I drink your eyes



In after-golden-glow.



The blood-fire cools.



The dance begins to slow.



It does not end at all:



Your eyes fill for my thirst.



Each tempest-touch and kiss



Is like the very first.







Instrumental (4 lines)







I cup your face.



My mouth to lash-brim flies.



The timeless dance begin.



I drink your eyes.
