A Tear And A Smile Lyrics

A Tear And A Smile lyrics

When we make love I feel it so deeply

When we make love I cry

When you
kiss me my lips they burn with fear

For even a love that crowns may
crucify

In the cradle of creation between the hand of love I died and there
you were

I was warmed amidst the gaze of your eyes, our minds wounded

by
The need for understanding, our bodies betrayed by time



Do you hear me
can you taste my pain for love has no other desire but to fulfill
itself

But to deny yourself the pleasure of that pain is to love
selfishly



I stood there

Your heart lay captive in a cage fashioned
by your fears not knowing what to say

You have many lovers and yet I alone
love you far beyond any lily white fairy tale



I would not exchange the
sorrows of my heart for the joys of the multitude

And I would not have the
tears that sadness makes to flow from my every part turn into laughter

I
want the hunger for your love and beauty to fill me from the depths of my
spirit
