The invisible light
Language: English
Though I, my love, must ever walk With hesitance in paths of endless night, Just call to me, my love, Just call and your voice will be all my light! Though I must grope within a vast Foreboding gloom that threatens with distress, Be near to me my love, Be near and I shall know all your loveliness. Though I am blind, my love, I sense the radiance of your form And realize symphonic dreams of you My love, that gives my soul a thousand eyes, Just call to me.
