1. Since I sailed the seas of love in the ships of passion
I was consumed with ecstasy and forgot all reason

2. No eyes saw me though I stood right before them
No hands touched me though I was within their reach

3. It was as if love itself were fire and from it
My bones, my limbs, my soul, my breath were formed

4. So I was like a supernatural creature viewing
All of mankind while unseen by those around me
