The May Queen
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.
Lay down in sweet surrender
Your love so warm and tender
Sweet surrender, now
So warm and tender, now
Inside my waves are breaking
A light of my salvation
Oh, my waves are breaking now
Ooh, sweet salvation now
I'm seeking love and glory
Just like I always do
The bosom of the freedom
Are very rarely chewed
Out here the fire's still burning
So long into my night
Still captive and still yearning
Surrender to your light
A heart that never falters
A love that never dies
I linger in the shadow
The dimming of my light
The dimming of my light
The dimming of my light
The dimming of my light
