Halcyon Days
Adam Stephens
When jealousy raps on the door
"Well, what have you come here for?"
To whisper your dreams away
They say you've loved too hard
Enough to enrage the gods
And now there's hell to pay
And with your name upon my lips
I sunk down
And relived your farewell kiss
As I drowned
So I went off in search of advice
Though you warned me to think twice
"I see death on the sea my love"
I said "I'll return 'fore long
And we'll live in the light of the dawn"
I heard faint laughter above
And with your name upon my lips
No one's ever loved like this
I sunk down
And relived your farewell kiss
As I drowned
Run and see run to the shore
And at your feet on waves I'll roll
Still asleep drenched to the core
And we will love like gods once more
