I Turned My Face
Bodies Of Water

I turned my face from God, but I won't turn from younI turned it not in shame, but to shield his light from viewnMy body, it will die, but what I do today will resonatenUntil the action, long since passednBears no resemblance to what it wrought beforennYou turned your face as well and I feared I was to blamenBecause your face now turnednNo longer burned with virtue's flamenAnd when your face was turnednIt ceased to be pleasingly cherubicnI could detect the spark (or lack thereof) or chronic tepidnessnnI turned my face from God, but I won't turn from younI turned it not in shame, but to shield his light from viewnMy body it will die but what I do today will resonatenUntil the action, long since passednBears no resemblance to what it wrought beforenI'd like to think that I nCan tough-mindedly avoid these snaresnBut this conceit will lastnOnly until your rod and staff are gonenAnd now that I have wept tears of despairnPlease let me cling to younAnd now that I have died to myselfnPlease let me see your facenAnd since my longing took a desperate turnnI feel you near to menAnd now that my voice cracks with regretnI draw you into mennI may not have a lot nBut what you have, you have surely gotnAnd when it's gone from me?nPart of it will stay with you endlesslynWhat did it do in me?nIt wrapped your heart in veiny filigreenWhat if I turn around?nThen truthfully, you were never found

Lyrics by Bodies Of Water

  Darling, Be Here   Doves Circled The Sky   Even In A Cave   Ever With Us   Gold, Tan, Peach, And Grey   Here Comes My Hand   I Guess I'll Forget the Sound, I guess, I guess   I Heard It Sound   If I Were A Bell   In Your Thrall Again   It Is Familiar   It Moves   Keep Me On   Lights Out Forever   Like A Stranger   One Hand Loves The Other   Only You   Open Rhythms   Our Friends Appear Like The Dawn   Roar, Roar, Roar   The Mud Gapes Open   These Are The Eyes   Under The Pines   Water Here   We Are Co-Existors   We Coughed Up Honey   We Will Be Apart   You Knew Me So Well
