The whispering
The waning light
The warmth
Of his offering
The flicker of
The candlelight
The silk
Of his eyes
She takes a breath
The wishing well
The weight
And the enormity
And in the flume
The fire dissolves
The fear
Opens her eyes
Oooo
She says I want to taste, to touch, to turn the tide
Go through the lion's den
I want to taste, to touch, to turn the tide
Go through the lion's den
And come out the other side
The tangling
The heavy night
The salt
On her shoulder blades
The mingling
The weightless flight
The dark
In their sighs
She breathes him in
The holy light
The smoke
Of the unknowable
And in his arms
The gradient
They trace
Brings out their sighs
Oooo
She says I want to taste, to touch, to turn the tide
Go through the lion's den
I want to taste, to touch, to turn the tide
Go through the lion's den
And come out the other side
Come out the other side
Come out the other side
I’m on the other
I want to taste, to touch, to turn the tide
Go through the lion's den
I want to taste, to touch, to turn the tide
Go through the lion's den
Oh, I want to taste, to touch, to turn the tide
I wanna go through the lion's den
Oh, I want to taste, to touch, to turn the tide
Go through the lion's den
And come out the other side
