Something more

[Verse]

I want to be in your life

Something more than a moment,

Something more than a shadow,

Something more than a desire.

I want to be, within you,

An unerasable trace

A constant memory,

And a single truth.

[Chorus]

I want to be more than a moment’s grace,

A timeless mark, your heart’s embrace.

To pulse in your prayers

With the fear of being left behind.

To be, in all and through all,

A part of you.

An endless thirst

For caresses and kisses;

But not a habit

Of always being near.

[Chorus]

I want to be more than a moment’s grace,

A timeless mark, your heart’s embrace.

[Instrumental]

[Verse]

I want to be in your life

A sorrow of absence,

A pain of distance,

An eternal longing.

Something more than an image,

Something more than a dream

That, conquering roads,

Arrives, passes, and goes away.

[Chorus]

I want to be more than a moment’s grace,

A timeless mark, your heart’s embrace.

[Instrumental]

To be the tears in your eyes,

And laughter on your lips.

To be the end and the beginning,

Darkness and light,

In earth and in heaven,

In life and in death,

To be, just as in my life,

You have come to be.

[Chorus]

I want to be more than a moment’s grace,

A timeless mark, your heart’s embrace.
