The Dream of Macsen by Faith and the Muse Lyrics

Hear me my beloved; I beckon thee through waves of dream and in mine
Ears a voice whispers oceans of light and in thine eyes alone begins
This journey of mine; is this love? Thou art Love; thou art Truth;
Thou art a vision resplendent and I am born with recognition;
For I have known thee a thousand years yet never known thee before; when
Thy radiance spoke my name I was a king restored and my kingdom pales in
The gloriousness of thee and my fortunes mask an emptiness filled only
By this; where our world exists beyond this brilliant dream; I shall
Find thee, thou art the answer; I will find thee, thou art the light
Yet I am human and thy light dims with consciousness; I am man and my
Love shall dim in thy conquest; I am passionately human and I shall
Close my eyes to thee for truth proves me mortal to be; yes, this is
Love and I must put my heart to sleep for this is love; true love dims
In human's keep and I am damned

Hear me my beloved I beckon thee through waves of dream
And in thine ears my voice whispers oceans of light
And in mine eyes alone begins this journey of thine

Hear me my beloved I have patiently awaited thee
For I remain confined within the realm of sleep
And in thy dreams I have long hoped thou wouldst see me
Hear me my beloved I beckon thee through waves of dream
And my voice shall resurrect the deity
And this vision shall awaken thee as thou ought to be

For this is love
