Lyrics Desire - Deepak Chopra, Adam Plack

Desire

A lover knows only humility, he has no choice
He steals into your alley at night, he has no choice
He longs to kiss every lock of your hair, don’t fret
He has no choice
In his frenzied love for you, he longs to break the chains of his imprisonment
He has no choice
A lover asked his beloved:
Do you love yourself more than you love me?
Beloved replied: I have died to myself and I live for you
I’ve disappeared from myself and my attributes
I am present only for you
I’ve forgotten all my learnings
But from knowing you I’ve become a scholar
I’ve lost all my strength, but from your power I am able
I love myself… I love you
I love you… I love myself
I am your lover, come to my side
I will open the gate to your love
Come settle with me, let us be neighbours to the stars
You have been hiding so long, endlessly drifting in the sea of my love
Even so, you have always been connected to me
Concealed, revealed, in the unknown, in the un-manifest
I am life itself
You have been a prisoner of a little pond
I am the ocean and its turbulent flood
Come merge with me
Leave this world of ignorance
Be with me, I will open the gate to your love
I desire you more than food or drink
My body my senses my mind hunger for your taste
I can sense your presence in my heart
Although you belong to all the world
I wait with silent passïon for one gesture one glance
From you
