Two Souls Оксана Соколова, Е100

I hid my heart away from spring
I lived, not asking heaven’s meaning
But suddenly
Through foreign silence
Your voice became the bread I needed

And I kept silent through so many winters
I almost lost the will for morning
The world felt distant, cold and nameless
With no reply, no sign, no warning

But you did not come like a dream
You came like prayer upon my doorway
And once again the heights were seen
Along my simple earthly pathway

Two fates beside one single flame
Two roads that met by chance and wonder

Now don’t let go of me again

If this is heaven, if it’s thunder
Two souls upon the edge of earth
Suddenly heard each other’s music
We did not guard love from its birth
But found it in the hush of losing

I won’t promise easy days
I won’t promise endless fairy tales
But if the world turns dark and grey
I’ll be your light when all else fails

And I will never rush the tears
Nor force confessions into being
I’ll simply learn, through passing years
To love your breath, your silent feeling

If the past should call me back

I’ll lay my hand upon your shoulder

If the night puts out the stars

I’ll be the last one to come closer

Not the last, but first forevermore
Where love is stronger than the storm

Two fates beside one single flame
Two roads that met by chance and wonder

Now don’t let go of me again

If this is heaven, if it’s thunder
Two souls upon the edge of earth
Suddenly heard each other’s music
We did not guard love from its birth
But found it in the heart of distance
