The Transit of Venus Lyrics

Speak to me child
Be without fear
I have done wrong by my father

He knows your sin
Confess unto him
Our love it has poisoned his alter

Something is coming
It's falling down from the sky
In darkness it's crawling
Fixing me with its eye

Sleep on my love
Hope lies above

My heart is lost
My soul is damned
The sign is crossed
Unholy lamb

The curtain aside
You no longer hide
I have grown weary of holding your life

Together we'll lie
Like sinners we'll die
Your salvation is my sacrifice

Ascending to Heaven
No glorious path that we tread
I will not lead you
By your hand through halls of the dead

Silent tears fall
On the heart stone

My heart is still
My pain is gone
My love is real
My only one

Solo - George

Heaven above me
I cast all of your reasons aside
I will foresake you
All gods and all loves she outshines

Be still my heart
Cast out your doubt

My blood is burned
My soul is gone
It journeys now
Where it belongs
