Spices that you can't resist
Curl around and resound
Through caverns that the breeze has kissed
Drawn inside, you hear a tone
As each foot hits a stepping stone
The music soothes and calms your mood
But suddenly you're not alone
A single cloud within a storm
Descends and leaves behind a form
Someone that you knew appears in front of you
A woman's figure, rain-cloud-born
She blinks but doesn't see you yet
She shivers and is soaking wet
You cross the sand and take her hand
A lifetime passed since last you met
Centuries now fall away
(expand the years) ?? Since yesterday
When you were young and in the sun
You let your woman slip away
You take the hands that you have missed
And kiss the lips you haven't kissed
For many years
Taste the tears
Spices that you can't resist
Odors in the evening mist Spices that you can't resist Curl around and resound Through caverns that the breeze has kissed Drawn inside, you hear a tone As each foot hits a stepping stone The music soothes and calms your mood But suddenly you're not alone A single cloud within a storm Descends and leaves behind a form Someone that you knew appears in front of you A woman's figure, rain-cloud-born She blinks but doesn't see you yet She shivers and is soaking wet You cross the sand and take her hand A lifetime passed since last you met Centuries now fall away (expand the years) ?? Since yesterday When you were young and in the sun You let your woman slip away You take the hands that you have missed And kiss the lips you haven't kissed For many years Taste the tears Spices that you can't resist Explain Request ×
