What lies beyond love br Seems to be an unknown country br An unprotected landscape through which run wild br All hearts unguarded br br It seems to be a greater love yet br More magnificent than we may ever know br Unless we could dissolve in its purity br And yield our selves for whatever it might be br br The only gateway to permanent bliss br Is a sacrifice of self on behalf of greater love br Which is not God exactly but br Something human yet br br Of course it is for this love that I long br And the remote possibility of knowing it br Presents me with a reason to live when oblivion br Could be much easier to play with and embrace br br I long for whatever lies beyond love br Like the distant lover that I miss br Most endlessly, accepting the pain br Of reaching out but never touching her.
