Lyrics

There’s no cross
No cause
No force
No laws
And this world is lit by the epiphany of a kiss

And there’s nothing can hold me

The dead flowers of my dreams come alive for you
Stars burn like sapphires in the sky for you
And there’s nothing or no-one above
This holy, holy love

Your hair unfolds upon your shoulders, soft spun gold
And I swim to the place in your eyes, full of grace

And there’s nothing can hold me
Hold me

The dead flowers of my dreams come alive for you
Stars burn like sapphires in the sky for you
And there’s nothing or no-one above
This holy, holy love

I won’t buy the lie
I’m no grinning neophyte
We are flesh
We are blood
There is love, holy love

And there’s nothing can hold me
Hold me

The dead flowers of my dreams come alive for you
Stars burn like sapphires in the sky for you
And there’s nothing or no-one above
This holy, holy love

The dead flowers of my dreams come alive for you
Stars burn like sapphires in the night for you
And there’s nothing or no-one above
This holy, holy love

Alternate Tunings

D A F# D A D (capo 4th fret)

( The F# in this tuning is low, so its best to use an A string guage and also a D string guage for where the G would be)
