John Lucas
The Entrance
Gather the saints in the mist
Beneath our favorite tree
And forge your vows in stone
And from the roots beneath

And measure out my tent
And the tables where we’ll feast
And invite the stars for dancing
For when the shadows have journeyed east

Go on, go on
Go on, go on and say I do
And remember the treasure you glimpse
When you’ve glimpsed my heart for you

And I will keep you like a promise
Stored beneath my wings
As you camp beside my mountains
And wait for my heart’s strings

And I will call you with thunder to return
To return to the tree
And there I will meet you without mist
Without mist or mystery

Go on, go on
Go on, go on and say I do
And remember the treasure you glimpse
When you’ve glimpsed my heart for you

And time itself will paralyze
To take in every moment
Of the entrance of the promise
Of love untold or ever spoken

And with wildflowers
The angels will sew our hearts as one
But neither angels nor demons can ever cut
Can ever cut the knots undone

Go on, go on
Go on, go on and say I do
And remember the treasure you glimpse
When you’ve glimpsed my heart for you
