Last night in Konya a voice carried me
|
To the pulpit of the arrow - did you hear it too?
|
The oracle was written on a silver leaf
|
Last night I read the words - did you read them too?
|
|
Aah...
|
Precious heart, precious seed, precious life conceived
|
In the ring of fire, in the sleep of peace
|
Nothing stops desire for the human beat
|
|
Last night was a rapture in the mosaic sky
|
Dropping shards of love, dropping shards of love
|
|
Aah...
|
Precious heart, precious seed, precious life conceived
|
In the ring of fire, in the sleep of peace
|
Nothing stops desire for the human beat
|
|
I hunger for the cooling flame, I hunger for the infinite game
|
|
Last night in Konya a voice carried me
|
To the pulpit of the arrow - did you hear it too?
|
The oracle was written on a silver leaf
|
Last night I read the words - did you read them too?
|
|
Devour me, yeah devour me
|
|
Oh Precious heart, oh precious seed, oh precious life conceived
|
In a ring of fire, in a sleep of peace
|
Nothing stops desire for the human beat - the human beat
|
