Systems of Romance Echoes of pleasure A shiver in the dark When you call my name Sudden horizons Open and close between us Touching me briefly With a healing grace Patterns of longing Figures down echo causeways Across the wild seas We spin away Time and again Systems of Romance Systems of Romance

Oh meet me and change me In rooms that go sailing Voices will name you As you move away Lakeland in silver Blazing away behind you Rapids of cloud I lose my way Time and again Endless horizons... Hopes are our empires now Crossing all codings Engaged in the timeless dance Systems of Romance Systems of Romance
