Invisible Choirs
A kiss, a touch, a bite, a lick
A call, a cry, a song, a trick
All those voices and violins
Do me wrong, do my poor head in
How many vanished lives
Converge in you and me?
All those lives meet here
Reaching for eternity
Let’s say that this is ours
Let’s say we serve no powers
They sing the songs, they start the trance
They beat the drums that make us dance
Let’s say that we are free
Not slaves to secret energies
I see you, do you see me?
Tonight in bed they let us be
Let us
Behind, before us
An endless chorus
A roar that pushes us on
A hum that deafens
A hum of the heavens in me and you
I don’t want to dance to the song
‘Cause the melody goes on and on
Binds me up in the tune and then
Sets me free and binds me again
A kiss, a touch
A kiss, a touch…
