Lyrics

TO WIN MY LOVE

To lay by me
And keep me warm
You gotta be a god
Temporarily
In human form
To know my secrets
Deep and dark
To ride my soul
To pierce my heart
You gotta be
On an odyssey

To win my love
you gotta be
someone who
Is breaking through
To win my love
You gotta be
Someone who rises to
A dream

To recognize
With the heart?s eyes
The burning furnace
That is behind
All of our days
To recognize
With the heart?s eyes
The burning furnace
That is behind
Every face

To win my love
You gotta be
Someone who
Is breaking through
To win my love
You gotta be
Someone who rises to
A dream

I don?t care
If I never get there
Just so long
As dreams are strong
In the air
All around me
All around me
A-H-H-H
