Her Silhouette

Though music softly plays nowhere
I see us dancing in the starlight
I cannot see her; just her silhouette

Falling though she is through this heart
Reaching out I might save such beauty
I cannot see her; just her silhoutte

Open before her is my soul
Like a book before a learned man
I cannot see her; just her silhouette

Though I daren't touch perfection
Yearning fills my heart, her voice sounding
I cannot see her; just her silhouette

For in it thus I had fallen
Thrice upon a time my soul cried love
I cannot see her; just her silhouette

So confused with emotion displayed
In sanity I'm losing my mind
I cannot see her; just her silhouette

A heavenly body in space
Dreaming of grace, her angelic self
I cannot see her; just her silhouette

More than the deepest lover would
Mon Élan vital cries out for her
I cannot see her; just her silhouette

Where is she; who is this shadow?
I know her, feel her so real within
I cannot see her; my belle silhouette
