The undreaming shadow

She wandered through her time
And he found his timeless self
Ay-yo, ay-yo
Ay-yo, ay-yo

He turned water into wine
And she gave away her wealth
Ay-yo, ay-yo
Ay-yo, ay-yo

He loved her more than love itself
And she loved him more than life
Ay-yo, ay-yo
Ay-yo, ay-yo

But the darkness drew their blood
And threw away the knife
Ay-yo, ay-yo
Ay-yo, ay-yo

Pulled apart
In the dead of night
They were destined then
To re-unite
In the undreaming shadow

When the world is gone
And the time is right
And the sun and moon
Are betrothed in the sight
Of God, from the undreaming shadow
We shall come

Ay-yay, ay-yay, ay-yo
Ay-yay, ay-yay, ay, yo

She searched for him
He searched for her
Inside the Book of Spells
Ay-yo, ay-yo
Ay-yo, ay-yo

In the Death star
And the golden star
And where the master dwells
Ay-yo, ay-yo
Ay-yo, ay-yo

A voice said: “I am God”
From within the all-seeing eye
Ay-yo, ay-yo
Ay-yo, ay-yo

So she bowed her head to this God
“I am God’s secret” she replied
Ay-yo, ay-yo
Ay-yo, ay-yo

Much of the work
Is underground
What’s found is lost
And what’s lost is found
In the undreaming shadow

Do I dare to look
At what’s mine to own?
Can I bear to leave
My comfort zone
For the undreaming shadow?

Ay-yay, ay-yay, ay-yo
Ay-yay, ay-yay, ay, yo

He wrote to her
He wrote this song
He wrote the Book of Love
Ay-yo, ay-yo
Ay-yo, ay-yo

She sang to him
She sang his song
She freed the Holy dove
Ay-yo, ay-yo
Ay-yo, ay-yo

What’s mine is yours
What’s yours is mine
Inside my father’s home
Ay-yo, ay-yo
Ay-yo, ay-yo

My bread is thine
My life is thine
And my immortal soul
Ay-yo, ay-yo
Ay-yo, ay-yo

There’s an exodus there
Down below
Will you stay
Or will you also go
From the undreaming shadow?

O Lord to whom now
Shall we go?
For we believe,
Is it not so,
In the undreaming shadow.

Ay-yay, ay-yay, ay-yo
Ay-yay, ay-yay, ay, yo
