Soul fly on wings lifting my soul
Heart beats her life into my heart
Coal fire glows in eyes black as coal
Depart my fantasy depart
Bound to my soul never be bound
Touch me; I'll be lost in your touch
Drowned in your beauty I'll be drowned
Clutch my body; my soul you'll clutch
Face your eyes away from my face
I will be captured by your eye
Embrace me I'll melt in embrace
Why torment my heart and soul. Why?
Hole in my heart leaves me not whole
Soul fly away leaving my soul
