Via Extasia
[Verse 1]
Oh if you were the restless sea and I the steadfast stones
Oh you the waving kelp above, I the bleaching bones
Your little waves to lap my feet
Advance and kiss, encroach, retreat
Surround, submerge, at last complete
Oh, you and I truly one
[Verse 2]
And were you then a yellow bloom, dancing in the grass
And I, a hunting honey bee, pausing e’er I’d pass
And as I sip on your nectar sweet
Your pollen grains surround my feet
In that ecstatic moment meet
Oh, you and I truly one
[Verse 3]
And were I then a single seed, of all the millions in the field
And you, a gentle raindrop from the sky
As you'd fall upon my breast
To awaken me from my long rest
In the moment by the old gods blessed
Oh, you and I truly one
[Verse 4]
And were you then the last wild leaf, upon the autumn brough
And I the wind, the wanton thief, to blow as I blow now
And when you fall, as fall you must
Oh I, to be the waiting dust
Beyond sorrow, greed, or lust
To lie here forever, truly one
