Psyche

Lyrics

Here I reap barley, corn and wheat In this field dark and bleak Eros holds the keys I seek Psyche's tasks to complete I loved him blindly Never saw his face by day I loved him nightly Aphrodite From my lips Venus fountains drip Bittersweetness Eden howls behind garden walls Reed pipes for wantoness I held the lamp Suspicion beheld me his face I held the lamp My lover flew away I loved him blindly Never saw his face by day I loved him nightly Aphrodite In the shadows of passion's throws Love's harvest seemed so cruel Black rivers cross beauty's domain Mortal world you begin to fade I loved him blindly Never saw his face by day I loved him nightly My lover flew away I loved him blindly Never saw his face by day I loved him nightly Aphrodite
