Enthralled with a Glint of your Glow (by Amanda)

I've been enthralled by your song and your dance
Tried to distance myself to avoid the past
But I cannot separate bliss and woe
For you slay and renew me with a glint of your glow

There are no rules, no time restrictions
Sometimes I grieve and laugh in one sentence
There are days when everything feels alright
Days when I cry and I hurt like a child
Who is lost, who can't find her way
Who brightens as soon as she sees a kind face
The smile of the man with whom she was parted
It's anyone's guess if she's joyful or ardent

For I've been enthralled by your song and your dance
Tried to distance myself to avoid the past
But I cannot separate bliss and woe
For you slay and renew me with a glint of your glow

I've experienced magic in recent years
Met people more lovely than I could've dreamed
I've spent precious time with your warm hands in mine
Soul-danced around space and time, touching divine
I've cried for me and I've cried for you
And I'll cry plenty more but I know I'll come through
With a smile on my face and a tear in my eye
I'll hail and lament you always, angel of mine

For I've been enthralled by your song and your dance
Tried to distance myself to avoid the past
But I cannot separate bliss and woe
For you slay and renew me with a glint of your glow
