LOVE NEXT TIME
Matthias
I feel your touch in the sunlight
I know your voice on the air
And though you never speak to me-
I suppose that’s your affair
Oh distant maid
Beyond the veil
Place your hands in mine
Dance to me through the misty years
And be my love in time-
Oh! Be my love this time.
Melicity
I see your eyes in the starlight
I hear your laugh everywhere
But if you never call my name
Oh distant man
Beyond the clouds
Rest your cheek by mine
Dance to me through the falling rain
And be my love in time
Oh! Be my love this time.
Matthias
I smell perfume in the gloaming
I mourn you cannot care
And though you never wait for me
I suppose that’s your affair
Oh unborn love
Beyond the years
Blend your life with mine
Come to me through the depths of space
And be my love in time
Oh! Be my love this time.
I close my eyes in the evening
I never held you near
And as I sleep you come to me
And whisper in my ear
Melicity
“Oh ancient love
Behind my days
I’ll blend my life with thine
Reborn with you in another world
I’ll be your love next time-
Oh! There’ll be love next time.
