Lend Your Love to Me Tonight - Emerson, Lake & Palmer

Lend your love to me tonight

Don’t ask me who or what is right

I have no strength I cannot fight

Just flood my darkness with your light

I need no face I need no name

No martyr’s artificial shame

No crucifix I am not lame

And yet I ache to feel the flame

Arrest the sun and shoot the moon

The lamp of laughter dies too soon

To live reflected in a spoon

Makes it too hard to stay in tune

Believe me

Unlock the door and unbar the gate

I’ll write I love you on the slate

And while St. Peter’s thieves debate

The price of time I will not wait

Or let the star blind road of fate

Confuse me

Abuse me

Misuse me

Release my soul release my eyes

A clock unwinds a flower dies

Dishonesty disqualifies

You win the race but lose the prize

A tattered cloak behind the throne

It is unseen it is not known

Behind this face I am alone

I would give everything I own

To touch you…

Just lend your love to me once more

Don’t ask me what I came back for

Just watch the moonlight cross the floor

And as your blood begins to roar

You’ll feel your senses spin and soar

You will become my meteor

Divine and universal whore

Complete me
