Beyond Love (Live)

[Intro]
We're definitely not gonna play that one
Now that you've asked for it

[Verse 1]
Move away from the window
And into the light
There are some things in this life
That you just can't fight

[Verse 2]
It's as if the spirits above
Have cast a little spell upon us
It's as if Heaven above
Is beckoning us
So let us take off our crosses and lay them in a tin
And let our weakness become virtue instead of sin
Our bodies stand naked as the day they were born
And tremble like animals before a coming storm

[Chorus]
Take me beyond love
Up to something above
Upon this bed, between these sheets
Take me to a happiness beyond human reach

[Verse 3]
The force of life is rushing through our veins
In and out like the tide, it comes in waves
The drops of semen and the clots of blood
Which may one day become like us
With outstretched hands reaching beyond love
And up to something above

[Verse 4]
Before our juices run cold and our flesh grows old
Let me feed upon your breast and draw closer to your soul
Let me stay with you tonight and I'll offer you my world
I'll take you to the angels if you'll take me to myself

[Chorus]
Take me beyond love (Beyond love)
Up to something above (Beyond love)
Upon this bed, between these sheets (Beyond love)
Take me to a happiness beyond human reach (Beyond love)

[Outro]
Beyond the grasp of lust (Beyond love)
Beyond the need for trust (Beyond love)
Beyond the gaze of the sick and the lame (Beyond love)
Beyond the stench of human pain
