Hold the night inside my hands Love turns the iron into flame I
found your name in the smoke of winter
A silver vow on a trembling tongue
You moved like fire through the silent hall And every wound I
hid came undone The dark kept turning around our bodies
Yet your gaze made the cold retreat I followed the sound of
your beating heart Like a prayer beneath marching feet Take me where
the red stars burn Where fear and desire are one
If I fall, let it be in your light If I break,
make me bloom Heaven in your hands,
I rise Through the storm,
through the fire
Kiss the ruin, make it shine You are my beautiful desire
Heaven in your hands,
I rise Even when the whole world tires Hold me close and
pull me through You are my beautiful desire The moon lay pale
on the broken armor
Still your touch was tender and bright We wore our hope like
a stolen banner
Running straight through the teeth of night I gave you all of
my restless thunder All the grief I could not name You turned
the ache into something holy And taught my blood a sweeter flame
If the dawn never comes
Stay with me in the blaze
Let the world fade away
We were born for this place Heaven in your hands,
I rise Through the storm,
through the fire
Kiss the ruin, make it shine You are my beautiful desire Heaven
in your hands, I rise Even when the whole world tires Hold
me close and pull me through
You
are my beautiful desire
Your name remains, your name remains
In the flame, in the flame (ooh)
