How Can You Love Me

If you could lift the painted veil
Falling across our eyes
And see the flame
Hiding beyond this world of lies
If you could look beneath this face
See behind your fears
Another man, a man of grace, is standing here
So look at me, oh, what shall you see?
Because behind appearances
Beyond this world in which we live
There we will find beauty
Because behind the distances
Beyond the different lives we lead
There is our destiny
How can you love me?
When you can’t see me?
If you could only hear the voice
Whispering within
To make a choice
And finally let the dawn begin
If you could only find the faith
To trust in how you feel
Another world, a better place
Would be revealed
So take my hand, and come to that land…
Because behind appearances
Beyond this world in which we live
There we will find beauty
Because behind the distances
Beyond the different lives we lead
There is our destiny
You know behind this masquerade
Beyond this world in which we live
There is a better way
Behind this sad charade
Beyond the different lives we lead
There is a brighter day
Now you can see me!
Now you can love me!
And we can let our hearts fly free!
