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
