Thieves of Pleasure Lyrics by Ravensire

A Stone Engraved in Red

2019

I evoke the dawn
Of a thousand years of longing
Whose light caressed the walls
Of the city I was born in
The summer breeze was warm
In Alshelb towards the west
And peaches round as breasts
Invited calm and rest
Red lips
Holding secrets
Fan the flames
Of desire
Eyes with lashes
Thieves of pleasure
Ignite the blood to burn like fire
Stricken by the plectrum
Their ouds' strings deftly playеd
Filled the air with songs
That spread throughout thе glade
Red lips holding secrets
Flames stirred by a fan
As water stirs the sense
Of the thirsty man
Flies the hawk
Over forests
Open wings
High above
Eyes with lashes
Thieves of pleasure
Oh, beware the burns of love
Warriors strong as lions
Not as dangerous, still
As women whose curved hips
Can subdue strength and will
The summer breeze was warm
In Alshelb towards the west
And peaches round as breasts
Invited calm and rest
Red lips
Holding secrets
Fan the flames
Of desire
Eyes with lashes
Thieves of pleasure
Ignite the blood to burn like fire
