(Isslene)
I hesitate, I hesitate
(Leo)
she sleeps waiting for the dragon to come
she sleeps waiting for the the dragon to come
a tale to tell...
(Isslene)
you spread through me in
so many kinds of whispers
you tell me to forget all else, but you
visions are colliding now, now, now, now, now, now.
(Leo)
she sleeps waiting for the dragon to come
she sleeps waiting for the dragon to come
(Isslene)
the cave is dark, but your fire burns through the stones
the cave is dark, but your fire burns through the stones
when you find me there, a sleeping beauty
will you awaken me and fly me somewhere new?
Firebird, dragon breath, firebird, dragon breath
firebird dragon breath...
(Leo)
she sleeps waiting for the dragon to come
she sleeps waiting for the the dragon to come
a tale to tell...

(Isslene )
the paintings are alive when you're not looking
the wind it blows, in the corner of my eyes
I see you, in the corner of my mind.
oh you,
you don't know how long I've been waiting for you.
oh you,
you don't know how long I've been waiting for you.
(Isslene background whispers)
the man in the tree
he's looking at me
he opens the door
dare I go inside?
where will lead me
where will I go
the lady in the hills
the lady in the hills is running
the lady in the hills is watching

Hunger

(Isslene)
The sky is a white sea
It is raining, so delicately
Golden chariot wheels
That I fasten for my earrings
They spin so quickly
They lift me towards you
Can you feel me?
As I move towards you.
(Leo)
All the heavens hunger jealously
Wanting to break free, and rush to your side
All the heavens hunger jealousy
Wanting to break free, and rush to your side
(Isslene)
The moon is a magic well
That you have watched me through
From across the heavens,
And now I'm climbing
The spiral staircase of the air
And I will meet you soon, my Andromeda

(Isslene)
The man in the tree
he waits for me
he opens the door
to the prophecy
(Isslene )
the paintings, are alive when you're not looking
the wind it blows, in the corner of my eyes
I see you, in the corner of my mind.
oh you,
you don't know how long I've been waiting for, you.
oh you,
you don't know how long I've been waiting for, you.
(Leo)
red horses are coming for you

Nostalgia

(Leo)
Already I have made
A nostalgia of your eyes
The feel of your hip beneath my hand
The briefest of kisses
I am undone
(Isslene)
Hold me through the night
Falling into your skin, I am gone
Take me, I am yours for keeping
I don't want to go
(Isslene)
And I would break like glass
Into a thousand pieces
On your lips, and at your touch
On your lips and at your touch
(Leo)
Already I have made
Already I have made
Already I have made
Nostalgia of your eyes
Nostalgia of your eyes
You’re hip beneath my hand
I am undone, I am undone
And I would break like glass
(Isslene)
Tell me where I can run to
Tell me where I can find you
(Isslene)
And I would break like glass
Into a thousand pieces
On your lips, and at your touch
On your lips and at your touch
(Isslene)
Tell me where I can run to
Tell me where I can find you
(Leo)
Awaken just to dream
Beneath the boughs and leaves
Somewhere you and I
Can set ourselves free

the moon boiled and broke
into many glassy peices
that fell to dark earth
I hid in the shadows
of the leaves
and saw dark pools shifting
quietly while
my body was breaking
and rippling into something else.
Colors were make believing
with wings erecting I became
you were the brilliant lion of the sun
coming to help me bring the lost children of the dead moon home
Home home home home.
Your roar shattered the stars
gave birth to the wind
and those broken stars cascated
I collected them
to feed to the tired
the so very tired moon children
Colors were make believing
with wings erecting I became
you were the brilliant lion of the sun
coming to help me bring the lost children of the dead moon home
Home home home home.
we taught the children love and they planted seeds
vines that grew to the heavens and higher
and when those vines flowered and seasons shifted
falling petals became new moons
the children climbed the vines and they returned home
the children climbed the vines and they returned home
and then the sun rose, and it swolloed you, my lion
and then the sun rose, and it swollowed you
with a shadow of a bird flying across the fire
with a shadow of a bird flying across the fire ...
Colors were make believing
with wings erecting I became
you were the brilliant lion of the sun
coming to help me bring the lost children of the dead moon home

the way you read my mind as I am looking into your eyes
of course this is because you are only in my head
but the way you were waiting for me behind closed doors
the way you traced your fingers across the wallpaper
your picking apart my exteriors
the way you lick your lips in concentration,
you can see me
I am crossing a barrier
there's only one more door
and I am walking through,
now.
