The farther side of love
An abandoned strand of time
Born into a future
Like the blight along the vine

There'll be no cut flowers
What marks us will be wild
A prison for the swain
Til the bane is reconciled

What is bottomless is darker
What is true is filled with woe
And the farther side of love
Is where the water lilies grow
What is merciless is fruitful
What is hitherto was vain
At the farther side of love
Is whеre I stand and call your name
In the glow of what's forеver
Is a light that's never dim
And what touches it is doubtful
For its past is not akin

But as the sun will touch the muscle
Though it's captured in the skin
The inn may be the holy place
For love to now begin

What is bottomless is darker
What is true is filled with woe
And the farther side of love
Is where the water lilies grow
What is merciless is fruitful
What is hitherto was vain
At the farther side of love
Is where I stand and call your name
