Greatest Love

The stars dwell all alight
And golden moon is rising high
Above the gardens fair and pure
Where faithful people still endure

A song of nightingale flows
Through the velvet night to meet dawn
Just once to slip between two worlds

You see my dream
You walk my shores
Cold and lonely
As the silent wish of me
Still locked beyond a secret door

You see a dreamless memory
Coiling deep in my eyes
You walk through deepest fantasy
Washing upon my mind

Take me to this realm
So far from faceless real
Unveil to me serenity of a scene
Still dwelling within your heart
Claim this flame in my eyes as your own art

Dwell with me in this song
Redeem me into first dawn
And be with me until the end of hope

I long for you as moon and stars share their glow
Though none shall ever know
There was greater love in the whole world
