Mystery Of Love Lyrics

Sufjan Stevens – Mystery Of Love Lyrics

Oh to see with out my eyes
The first time that you kissed me
Boundless by the time I cried
I built your walls around me
White noise, what an awful sound
Fumbling by Rogue River
Feel my feet above the ground
Hand of God, deliver me

Oh, oh woe-oh-woah is me
The first time that you touch me
Oh, will wonders ever cease?
Blessed, be the mystery of love

Lord, I no longer believe
Drowned in living waters
Cursed by the love that I received
From my brothers daughter
Like Hephaestion, who died
Alexander's lover
Now my river bed has dried
Shall I find no other?

Oh, oh woe-oh-woah is me
I'm running like a plover
Now I'm prone to misery
The birthmark on your shoulder reminds me

How much sorrow can I take
Black bird on my shoulder
And what difference does it make
When the love is over?
Shall I sleep within your bed?
River of unhappiness
Hold your hands upon my head
'til I breath my last breath

Oh, oh woe-oh-woah is me
The last time that you touched me
Oh, will wonders ever cease?
Blessed be the mystery of love
