Blind to our thoughts, we talked through the night
And sensing the truth in our hearts
We closed our eyes to the past,
Opened doors to the present
And, in allied terror,
Walked through to face our dawn.
On that day we learned the meaning of Fear.
Blind to our words, we talked through the dawn,
And seeing the truth in our minds
We closed our eyes to the present,
Opened doors to the past
And, trembling with intimacy,
Relinquished ourselves from our pain.
On that day we learned the meaning of Trust.
Blind no longer, we talked through the day
And knowing the truth in our souls
Our eyes looked to the future.
Opening doors to eternity,
We lay in the light of the moon
Until tired and weary, lids closed,
We dreamed together of forever.
On that day we learned the meaning of Love.
