Eternity Between the Sheets

Verse 1 He stands inside my shadow, a silhouette of light Steel eyes like shards that pierce the endless night His scent is winter’s whisper, a shiver that sets me free My lover that the mirrors reflect but still they lie to me My dear Marquis I cannot see; yet know to be nearby The Sword that I’ve dared to want, the Sword that cannot die Unyielding presence cuts deep into my soul This silence is an agony, without him I’m not whole The man is an enigma, I feel him call my name My slice of the eternal, the immortal I must claim Refrain And so I sleep, and he… he is there In my dreams I take a dare I reach out and pull eternity into my arms He touches me, kisses me, the ice warms. Lucien… My immortal, I feel the beat of his heart And it belongs to me Verse 2 Gentle hands are hidden vows, forbidden oaths in skin I search for where he ends and we begin His eyes are a labyrinth and I have lost my way I steal away within his light and shadows fall away Now our union rocks together; now everything is right I want to feel him tremble, the Sword will yield tonight Every breath he takes becomes an endless kiss If he’ll let me past his armor, I’ll be his fleur de lys The man is an enigma, the Sword that makes me ache My slice of the eternal, the immortal I will take Refrain And so I sleep, and he… he is there In my dreams I take a dare I reach out and pull eternity into my arms He touches me, kisses me, the ice warms. Lucien… My immortal, I feel the beat of his heart And it belongs to me Bridge I call him onto me and know his endless grace I hold him to my chest and force his pulse to race His shadow dances on my lips, Grazes against my fingertips And I lose myself… I lose myself in him Final Refrain And so I sleep, and he… he is there In my dreams I take a dare I reach out and pull eternity into my arms He touches me, kisses me, the ice warms. Lucien… My immortal, I feel the beat of his heart And it belongs to me His heart belongs to me.
