I Dreamed of Beauty Thus In Time
I dreamed of beauty thus in time
A rose beneath desire
Where every heart thus unbeat
Should wake and love eternally
I dreamed beneath the lucid sun
That sunrises thus undone
Should come again when morning wakes
And waking thus to not forsake
The love that in my heart was made
And like a sunrise knows no shame
Restrained by wings of paradise
Should find the moment in your eyes
As true as any moment made in life
But sometimes my love I dream that time
Can never in its chains define
The shadows that are left undying
The rose that in the sunlight knows
That love is all that heaven shows
For if my love I reach beyond
The vast eternal distance sea
Of all that love was meant to be
I find that sorrow knows my name
And in its presence I am the same
But love is all that heaven shows
And what lays beneath the rose
Save sunlight waiting thus in time
To shine
And there is faith as true as love
