I dared to adore...
You.
She's been the goddess of the podium
The world assuming her uninvited audience.
Standing there season after season
To cascade the auditorium with poisoning glory
And drown the world with petals splendid of charms
Quenching their unrealized desires
And melting a thousand hearts away in me
Idol of a thousand shrines
I dared to adore
A black goddess with skin so fair
A pure Eve in her incarnated
And as her African pride imitates wings of butterfly
A thousand men burn incense of adoration in me
Driving out of their amusement the biggest applause
Adored for her larger-than-life beauty,
As down the glistening eyes
the depth of an ocean silently lies.
And for a thousand eternities she'll rule
She's a goddess
The idol of a thousand shrines.
All that remains of my fires,
I dared to love ,
All that remains of my desires.
