dichotomy We're all in the gutter, but some of us are looking at the stars. (Oscar Wilde)

Heute, ein wenig weihnachtlich: Jewel – Face of Love

Until tonight, my heart was just half-full
I’d never known the fruit which fed the soul
But now I see what may put to rest my longing

For I have seen
The face of love
The grace of God
The face of love

In silence, I feared my heart would remain
Words unheard inside a separateness of skin
But now I know that the skin just veils the soul

For I have seen
The face of love
The grace of God
The face of love

So take my hand knowing
With it I also give my heart wanting
Never to be separate again
Let eternity begin

If you were a flame, I’d allow myself to be consumed completely
Were you the wind, I would wish you to pass through me
For now I know that the skin just veils the soul

For I have seen
The face of love
The grace of God
The face of love
