Lyrics
Eleusis
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Oh come calmly
Over the ocean I beckon to thee
I blow seeds of love to be
Born of my heart
Sown on the breeze
All I fondly know
Pales upon sails of your sweet gentle flow
How our love will grow
Crowned upon swans
Calling home
The love you hide inside
Has nowhere to run and nowhere to hide
I can see it in your eyes
Your empty hearts and your wasted lives
All I fondly know
Pales upon sails of your sweet gentle flow
How our love will grow
Crowned upon swans
Calling home
All I fondly know
Pales upon sails of your sweet gentle flow
How our love will grow
Crowned upon swans
Calling home
