[verse 1] Oh, those eyes that see more every season Since they first fell on me And your hair that smells of sweet surrender To the one who set you free Oh, your smile shines in perfect lines of white From the light that lives within And your lips the scarlet guards of beauty In the service of the king [Chorus] I long for you With everything in me I long for you Who can say that they have died for you? My love, I long for you [verse 2] Oh your cheeks They blush with your abundance You veil your blossoms with leaves So your lover alone can know your garden For the paradise it is Oh, rising straight like Davids tower Your neck stands free, stands fierce And your joyful surrender to your father Your immovable defense [Chorus] I long for you With everything in me I long for you Who can say that they have died for you? And lived for you? [Chorus] I long for you With everything I have I long for you Who can say they conquered hell for you? My love, I long for you [verse 3] In your bosom, faith and love are equal Your youth crowned with purity Youre nurtured And with holiness you nurture Like a lover, mother, queen [Chorus] I long for you With everything in me I long for you Who can say that they have died for you? And lived for you? [Chorus] I long for you With everything I have I long for you Who can say they conquered hell for you? My love, I long for you For you
