Mummified

MUMMIFIED - Written by Carroll Bryant 

In the heart of every man

There lives the soul of a woman

And in the truth of every night

She lives deep inside

Until the man is mummified

In the story of true lovers

They will define a new beginning

And in the touch of their life

They will be buried alive

Until their legend is mummified

Every song will have its bird

Every king a queen

Every sigh will just be heard

By the way that they hold, and their spirits are set free

In the heart of every man

There lives the fire of a woman

And in the front of his lonely eyes

She appears to him each night

And leaves the man so mummified

Not every wish was made to come true

Not every wind will blow

Not every thought will be pure and new

Sometimes she will stay, and sometimes she will go

Not every star was made for its shine

Not every hope so real

Not every moment lives in Divine

So much for the way a true heart can feel

In the heart of every man

There lives the soul of a woman

And in the truth of every night

She lives deep inside

Until the man is mummified

In the story of true lovers

They will define a new beginning

And in the touch of their life

They will be buried alive

Until their legend is mummified

And in a world that’s black and white

There’s a place they two can hide

Until they’re both so mummified
