Reason, no Reason

The day I learned to love you
Is the day I learned to lose you
When you slipped into the nothingness
Fading into my forgetfulness

The day I learned to love you
Is the day when I finally knew
That to keep is to imprison
And to let go is of no reason

Reason in truth, reason in love
Reason, no reason from above
For the day I learned to love you
Is the day I learned to free you

Flow, flow

Carry on as you flow
Flow down, down, deep
Deep into the dark blue
As my hands cannot keep

Deep into the dark blue
Sail and slide away
Glide and glide away
Away flee as they flew

Across the dark blue
To where I do not know
But flow, flow as you go
As you wish, you will go

I wish you go and flow
To where I do not know
And down, down, deep
With you I flow and keep

Faithfulness

Will you be there beside me
When I won't be so loveable
When beauty has long faded
And the years long spent

Will you be there beside me
When the storm's blown full
And the wind beating and screeching
Should leave me pale and pall

Will you be there beside me
When I have lost all glory
And shadows loom in my eyes
Eyes of a sad, sad story

Will you be there beside me
As I breath my last
Alone and shivering as I gasp
Life slowly turning past

Will you be there beside me
When I'll have faded away
Not in mind and heart I stay
Dissolving, fading in the fray

And, yes, you are beside me
And, yes, I am happy
To have you just beside me
To share eternity
