[00:31.456] Why do you stand by the window [00:37.456] Abandoned to beauty and pride [00:44.111] The thorn of the night in your bosom [00:50.555] The spear of the age in your side [00:56.000] Lost in the rages of fragrance [01:02.111] Lost in the rags of remorse [01:08.789] Lost in the waves of a sickness [01:14.121] That loosens the high silver nerves [01:19.777] Oh chosen love, Oh frozen love [01:23.007] Oh tangle of matter and ghost [01:32.000] Oh darling of angels, demons and saints [01:37.453] And the whole broken-hearted host [01:42.454] Gentle this soul [01:50.345] And come forth from the cloud of unknowing [01:57.444] And kiss the cheek of the moon [02:03.111] The New Jerusalem glowing [02:09.111] Why tarry all night in the ruin [02:15.343] And leave no word of discomfort [02:21.111] And leave no observer to mourn [02:27.333] But climb on your tears and be silent [02:32.898] Like a rose on its ladder of thorns [02:38.888] Oh chosen love, Oh frozen love... [02:45.456] Oh tangle of matter and ghost [02:55.787] And the whole broken-hearted host [03:01.897] Gentle this soul [03:09.888] Then lay your rose on the fire [03:15.777] The fire give up to the sun [03:21.895] The sun give over to splendour [03:27.567] In the arms of the high holy one [03:33.555] For the holy one dreams of a letter [03:39.565] Dreams of a letter's death [03:44.898] Oh bless thee continuous stutter [03:50.765] Of the word being made into flesh [03:56.444] Oh chosen love, Oh frozen love... [03:58.888] Gentle this soul
