Love is a wind that drives the
will
Across the yielding sand.
Although at last the wave must break,
The ride, the ride is grand.
Our love and need and joy are such
That surely we will go
As far, as far as moon and tide
Can still the undertow.
As far, as far as wishes can
Wear rock and stone away,
So love will take us far across
The bar on which we lay,
Far further up the burning sand
Where love farewell might say.
