about

Music by Egberto Gismonti, lyrics by Brenda Earle Stokes

lyrics

How can I tell you in this moment that I want to taste the essence that is you?
How you embody all the universal force that leaves me trembling at your feet
And if I came across a time that I might lose you
I’d surrender
I would toss my broken heart into the ocean
Open water, in the dark endless sea
Your conviction killing me

Am I insane the way I yearn to taste the bittersweet complexion of your lips?
And quench my hunger with your wine as red as blood that surges constant through my veins?
I am alive, I am alone and I am grieving
Never ending
Burning for your dark temptation, your aroma
Your sensation, your convictions like mine
Turning water into wine.
