Touching Once (Is So Hard to Keep)

Leaving all their thoughts behind Passing over timeless wastes of ecstasy Freedom strangled at the source Takes the only charted course That leads them home Their bodies move towards the dawn The light in which a nation born Can only hope, and only weep Their passion may be growing weak How was alone, recall me if you can I feel I am lost within you Many times within the sound of emptiness A light has shown deep in each others soul Keeps them apart, a love now makes them whole Fractured memories tearing at all their dreams Made life and living a faded scene To give a name locked in despair Makes chances of a lifetime course across your eyes To give and get, and yet return Emotion smoulders, starts to burn in harmony They lay within a ruined shell Searching for the time to tell That he who followed endlessly Does not exist, can never be How was alone, recall me if you can I feel I have lost within you A part of what is held inside a deep regret Taking over all that a hearts request Answered by cries from a wilderness Found forgotten lying in deeper sleep Touching once is so hard to keep In emptiness, a light has shown deep in each others soul Keeps them apart, a love now makes them whole Fractured memories tearing at all their dreams Made life and living a faded scene Taking over all that a hearts request Answered by cries from a wilderness Found forgotten lying in deeper sleep Touching once is so hard to keep
