[Intro]
Shake the heavens
Cross the waters blackened
All before I lose the thought of you
[Verse 1]
Many suns and moons ago
One heavy-hearted night
I trusted my heart to the waves
And flung her out of sight
Heavy love sank down the sea
And to the ocean floor
Still you're here
Still I'm yours
[Chorus]
You, peril of desire
Now you, sweetest misery
Oh you, you are on my mind now
Time again, time again
You, peril of desire
Now you, sweetest misery
Oh you, you are on my mind now
Time again, time again
[Verse 2]
Once upon a heavy night
Under the hunter's moon
And under waters deep my heart
Still skips a beat for you
Heavy love will wash ashore
Carried by the tide
'Cause you're here
'Cause you're mine
[Chorus]
You, peril of desire
Now you, sweetest misery
Oh you, you are on my mind now
Time again, time again
You, peril of desire
Now you, sweetest misery
Oh you, you are on my mind now
Time again, time again
[Post-Chorus]
Shake the Heavens
Cross the waters blackened
All before I lose the thought of you
[Bridge]
Will I endure if not with you?
The midnight sun, the hunter's moon
No days and nights of solitude
I'll walk with the Reaper or with you
Will I endure if not with you?
The midnight sun, the hunter's moon
No days and nights of solitude
I'll walk with the Reaper
[Chorus]
You, peril of desire
Now you, sweetest misery
Oh you, you are on my mind now
Time again, time again
You, peril of desire (Peril of desire)
Now you, sweetest misery (Sweetest misery)
Oh you, you are on my mind now
Time again, time again
[Post-Chorus]
Shake the Heavens
Cross the waters blackened
All before I lose the thought of you
