An angel came to me last night and whispered of the wonder of love|She said to me '1ogether we can find this treasure -1he wonder of love'.|Then soft as a zephyr through an open window|She grazed my cheek with lips so infinitely tender|And said 'that's just a taste of what you win|When you surrender to the wonder of love ''|I felt as though the sun had come to melt my ancient glaciers|With the splendor of love|And all the rivers of my heart were overflowing with the splendor of love|''Tonight we will warm ourselves at the fires of Venus|And nothing but our love will pass between us|Our destiny is waiting there to lead us to the wonder of love',|She rocked my soul down to its deep and dark foundations|With the thunder of love|And all that night we played a thousand variations on the thunder of love|Who cares if the world outside is drunk with power|Who cares if my heart cannot survive this hour|For I have seen the thousand-petalled lotus flower of the wonder of love|I say yeah to surrender - yeah to the splendor|I say yeah to the thunder - to the wonder· to the wonder|I said yes 10 the world, with all its heartaches|Yes to the chances we let ourselves take|What difference does another heartache more or less make|To the wonder of love|And now I hear the angelic trumpets blowing up and down creation|With the wonder of love|The very galaxies are singing to share my exultation in the wonder of love|Stars fall down and strike my open heartstrings|Calling forth arpeggios of bright ecstatic yearnings|And all of it dissolving in the thunder of the wonder|Of the thunder of the splendor of the wonder of love.||
