Gods
In a dream dreamt by two young lovers
In hopefull desperance
A song carrying the heartbeat
Of heaven in suspense
To the kingdom of frail , made its way
And there, by some slight chance
Gave you and i the secret
To love and love entranced

The lord stood still with mouth agape
As angel fell to flowers fake
Through silent hour of thoughtless mime
Grew ivy leaves
We laid and dried
A song carrying the heartbeat
Of friends who were not, but souls sewn together
With the tightest of knots

In this kingdom of frail
We built land and the sea
From the hum of your blue eyes
And the whistle of my green
Battles of blurry, sang out to the free
A song carrying the heartbeat
Of some choir's new verse
That heaven lost the page to the great lover's curse

We built in one second
What took god a whole week
We loved like no other
And found in some street
An echo from some distance
We followed to the sea
Of a song carrying the heartbeat
Of a tale of young lovers
In the lost kingdom of frail
Who built from love a foundation
The tale of you and me
