I am not yours, not lost in you, br Not lost, although I long to be br Lost as a candle lit at noon, br Lost as a snowflake in the sea. br br You love me, and I find you still br A spirit beautiful and bright, br Yet I am I, who long to be br Lost as a light is lost in light. br br Oh plunge me deep in love -- put out br My senses, leave me deaf and blind, br Swept by the tempest of your love, br A taper in a rushing wind.
