This Is New

With you I used to roam through the pleasure dome of Kubla Khan
I held you tight, my love, in the gardens of old Babylon
I lost you through the centuries, I find you once again
And find myself the luckiest of men
This is new
I was merely existing!
This is new
And I’m living at last!
Head to toe
You’ve got me so
I’m spellbound!
I don’t know
If I am heaven- or hell-bound!
This is new
Is it Venus insisting
That I’m through
With the shadowy past?
I am hurled
Up to another world
Where life is bliss
And this
Is new!
