Memories And Reasons

Dazzle me tonight
With the sound of your voice
The light in your eyes
The beauty of your face

The coldness of forever
Separates us now
The memory is a dream
That I let slip away

I have another mistress
One I can never touch
She only comes to visit
When I’m exposed to the world

Choices were made
Many years ago
Sacrificed love
Looking for diamonds in the ashes

They built a city in the desert
Looking for paradise
Thousands flocked to the temple
Willing to pay any price
