Torch Song

I saw you
Angels came to light your path
I heard you keep their wings
Pressed under glass
Now how am I so enthralled
That I might die?
I saw you sweetly smile
And say, do try, do try
Anything
I’d tear out my eyes for you, my dear
Anything
To see everything that you do
I saw you so bereft, so pale and weak
When I looked through
You and I declined to speak
I won’t say
Anything
I’d tear out my eyes for you, my dear
Anything
To see everything that you do, I do
Anything
I’d tear out my soul for you, my dear, oh my dear
Anything
To feel everything as you do, I do
Anything, anything
Leave me, leave me to grieve
That nothing’s lost, nothing’s lost
Leave me but when you leave
Know nothing’s lost, nothing’s lost
Anything
I’d tear out my eyes for you, my dear
Anything
To see everything that you do, I do
Anything
I’d tear out my soul for you, my dear, oh my dear
Anything
To feel everything as you do, I do, I do
