Tina Malia - Lilac Blooms lyrics

Long is the river, flowing to the sea And in my blood a shiver, rising in me Across the horizon, far beyond the sky Is a land that I dream of Where a sparrow takes flight And you come to me like a flame I warm my hands on the breath of life Still haunted by the coldness that came Torn between the love and sorrow inside And you come to me like a thorn A garland of roses around my head Sweet and sacred as the sun Beautiful 'til my fingers bled Under the black, under the night Under the darkest thing you know There is a light, there is a fire There is an everlasting glow And I'll meet you there, in the lilac blooms And well dance and sing under the rising moon And there is a place I know Where a songbird sings high upon a hill I can hear her from the knoll When my breath is quiet ad the air is still Under the black under the night Under the darkest thing you know There is alight, there is a fire There is an everlasting glow And Ill meet you there, in the lilac blooms And we'll dance and sing under the rising moon And you leave me now for a while Long is the journey to the other side But I am comforted still When I think of you smiling like a child
