I walk the earth wrapped in suffering for you
I love you no matter what you could do
This notion does not make it to your heart
Instead it rejects me from the start

But hope always remains eternal
Though your thoughts are mainly carnal
Poured out here is a gift not just from me
But the God of gods, alas the Jesse tree

Your love means everything to me I must say
Journeying thousands of years in a day
I rest my soul on love itself and am comforted
My heart into your submission was jolted

My joy is complete when you ring me up
To share with you love’s divine cup
But I know that what was written was lost
Hard to make that call, so great a cost
