Lilac Blooms (Under the Rising Moon) Lyrics & Tabs by Tina Malia
Lilac Blooms (Under the Rising Moon)
guitar chords lyrics
Long is the river, flowing to the sea
And in my blood a shiver, rising in me
Across the horizon, far beyond the sky
Is a land that I dream of
Where a sparrow takes flight
And you come to me like a flame
I warm my hands on the breath of life
Still haunted by the coldness that came
Torn between the love and sorrow inside
And you come to me like a thorn
A garland of roses around my head
Sweet and sacred as the sun
Beautiful 'til my fingers bled
Under the black, under the night
Under the darkest thing you know
Beautiful 'til my fingers bled
Under the black, under the night
Under the darkest thing you know
There is a light, there is a fire
There is an everlasting glow
And I'll meet you there, in the lilac blooms
And well dance and sing under the rising moon
And there is a place I know
Where a songbird sings high upon a hill
I can hear her from the knoll
When my breath is quiet ad the air is still
Under the black under the night
Under the darkest thing you know
There is alight, there is a fire
There is an everlasting glow
And Ill meet you there, in the lilac blooms
And we'll dance and sing under the rising moon
And you leave me now for a while
Long is the journey to the other side
But I am comforted still
When I think of you smiling like a child
