Discover What It Is

[Verse 1]
Discover what it is to be in love
Far flung in the withered leaves above
The wings of light have filled my empty room
The winter light that glares and stares at you
I watched you light a candle with a friend
The flame, the fling, the falling feeling ends
I watched you take to flight and move away
Far above the darkened clouds to stay

[Verse 23]
Discover what it is to be in love
To test the fates, the taste beyond enough
That lingers on the frostbitten core
That Adam left behind when he wanted more
I watched you as the peeling hit the ground
I tried to hold the feeling in the sound
But you and I, we had no heart to hear
The part of the flame that isn't clear

[Verse 3]
Discover what it is to be in love
To lie beneath the stone where lovers moan
Where two or three and one must never know
That fantasy is real when you let it go
And you and I belong to all this time
That lingers in the night of the falling stars
The hot and cold of crystal clarity
That brings the flame an inch away from me

[Verse 4]
Discover what it is to be in love
With a lover who is spoken for in tongues
For the woman leads the man into her heart
But the girl must lead the dancers in the dark
And stumbling through the moon-infested night
Remember it is not a pretty sight
The flame, the ash come crashing to the ground
Remember it is not a pretty sound
