Текст песни Mystery Of Love (Demo) - Sufjan Stevens

Oh, to see without 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, whoa, oh, is me
The first time that you touched 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 receive
From my brother's daughter

Like Hephaestion, who died
Alexander's lover
Now, my riverbed has dried
Shall I find no other?

Oh, whoa, oh, 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?
Blackbird on my shoulder
And what difference does it make
When this love is over?

Shall I sleep within your bed?
River of unhappiness
Hold your hands upon my head
'Til I breathe my last breath

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