Have You Ever Loved?

Have you ever loved, as if you drank the stream,
Pure and cold, a crystal, living dream?
Like a spring’s clear water, sharp and bright,
That could break the enamel in the night.

Have you loved like sunset’s tender ray,
When the breeze caresses, soft and sway?
Shyly baring skin in golden light,
Touching lips so gently, holding tight.

Chorus
Have you ever…?
But I have loved, I love, I hold you near…



Have you ever loved while clouds did roam,
Drifting slow across the sky’s vast dome?
Yet it meant so little, didn’t care at all,
In that moment, you were music, you were all.

Have you touched the strings with tender hand,
Learning every note across the land?
I have stroked and cherished, kissed each part,
Fearing any careless word would break your heart.

Chorus
Have you ever…?
But I have loved, I love, I hold you near…



Have you ever loved her bottomless eyes,
Lakes of longing, silent, deep, and wise?
You can’t cross her body’s hidden shore,
Endless depths that pull you back for more.

Have you loved so deeply, heart laid bare,
Echoes of desire shivering through the air?
And without shame, yet humbly giving in,
Yielding to the touch, where hearts begin to win.

Chorus
Have you ever…?
But I have loved, I love, I hold you near…


Have you ever loved? Have you given dawn and dusk,
Every breath and moment, never lost?
Caressing tremors running down her skin,
Peeling off the veil, the dress, letting it spin.

Have you loved so fiercely, in a single breath,
Everything consumed by passion, conquered by death?
To hell with shame and jealousy, I say,
All upon the altar of this humble, burning way.
