ThreeTimesTheSun
(Nico & Ingeborg, nov 2007)
Em C
When your soft kiss on my cheek ...wakes me from my slumber
I see you move in front of me, clad by sky.
While you slowly dance on the rythm of the running water.
You softly draw circles around me
G D C Em
And when the night fades into a cruel bright dawn
You leave me like a dream, until three times the sun.
C Em
Three times the sun
Three times the sun
C Em C
Em C
When I see you rise to release me from the shadows
I open my arms and receive your warmth.
And while the frozen earth finds again her blazing colours
You lightly draw circles around me
G D C Em
And when the day fades into a cold dark night
You leave me like a dream, until three times the moon.
C Em
Three times the moon
Three times the moon
C Em C
Em C
When your gentle touch on my hands.. moves my soul within me
Like the shadow of a spirit who treds, on a beam of light
When our symbols interweave to form the meaning of creation
You softly draw circles around me.
G D C Em
And when the night fades into a cruel bright dawn
You leave me like a dream, until three times the sun.
Refr: (sun)
Em C
And in my heart I keep the secret words you whisper
While your burning touch draws patterns on my skin.
And as you climb your way up and down the sky
You lightly draw circles around me
Refr: (moon)
Em C
When I see you slowly disappear over my horizon
I still feel your presence so near.. you pull me in.
Because the promise that we made, our bonds are ever lasting.
And you softly draw circles around me
