Red, red stains on green, green grass
Remain, still
Unwashed by the sky, and loved by the Moon
Illuminating, once again, visions witnessed
Of you and I and that strange Motherless night of stars
Where we walked, then, on this soft, dewy green
'neath the deep blue night and the Moon unseen
Yet we could see,
Our naked bodies and the crystal waters beside
And we did bathe 'neath the celebrating night
With soft damp caresses, exploring and heightening needs of warmth
As we draw closer, to embrace, once again
Your fingers through mine,
You lead me out, into the warm night, upon grass green
Where we lay beside each other, as I kiss you gently upon your lips
Till the Heavens bless us with a sign
And I understand
We made love through the night and rain
Leaving behind us the warmth of the morning
And red, red stains on green, green grass
I bend now to caress these stains that remain
And am filled with misery and pain,
For you shall be beside me nevermore
For the Lord above did envy,
Even as the elements around did Him defy,
This state attained
Of Oneness, so above His own
And He struck his own child, you, my love
To leave me with only memories
Standing, sullen, gazing upon
Your red, red stains on green, green grass
Remain, still
Unwashed by the sky, and loved by the Moon
Illuminating, once again, visions witnessed
Of you and I and that strange Motherless night of stars
Where we walked, then, on this soft, dewy green
'neath the deep blue night and the Moon unseen
Yet we could see,
Our naked bodies and the crystal waters beside
And we did bathe 'neath the celebrating night
With soft damp caresses, exploring and heightening needs of warmth
As we draw closer, to embrace, once again
Your fingers through mine,
You lead me out, into the warm night, upon grass green
Where we lay beside each other, as I kiss you gently upon your lips
Till the Heavens bless us with a sign
And I understand
We made love through the night and rain
Leaving behind us the warmth of the morning
And red, red stains on green, green grass
I bend now to caress these stains that remain
And am filled with misery and pain,
For you shall be beside me nevermore
For the Lord above did envy,
Even as the elements around did Him defy,
This state attained
Of Oneness, so above His own
And He struck his own child, you, my love
To leave me with only memories
Standing, sullen, gazing upon
Your red, red stains on green, green grass
