A poetic, celtic sounding song about forbidden love and desire.

The song is moody and haunting. The violin part is performed by Gabe Witcher whose credits include Babel (Oscar winner - best original score) and Brokeback mountain (Oscar winner - best original score) & countless others.

BREATHE YOUR NAME

We hide our love in the darkness
Like thieves in the night we lie in wait
Wait for night's veil to protect us
Wait for the stars to breathe your name

I drank the wine of desire
And now your mouth is all I taste
Day after day this thirst like fire
Consumes me 'til I breathe your name

When will toll the midnight hour?
When will close the light of day?
When will the sun refuse to shine?
When will the darkness reign?
When will I breathe your name?

A forbidden garden, an unlocked door
An ancient temptation obeyed
As I make you mine - as you make me yours
I'll be yours, I'll breathe your name

When will toll the midnight hour?
When will close the light of day?
When will the sun refuse to shine?
When will the darkness reign?
When will I breathe
When will I breathe
Finally breathe your name
