Lyrics (let me know if I mis-heard anything):
Parted lips, you pray a verse
At the altar of the universe
Marble skin and raven hair
Suddenly, the Goddess is standing there
And while things sing in words unknown
She sees into your soul
Touches your trembling fear
Reflects your joy like a mirror
She climbs the hill, cathedral spire
You move like wood, and she like fire
Flames rise higher and higher
Is it birth or funeral pyre
She lifts her lips, just like a chalice
Her body a living palace
You drink deeply from the grail
Flesh on skin, living communion
Bow and arrow, release of union
Into the fire, you fell
And you burn, burn, burn
Trembling, you ask her why
Red lips she prophesied
You longed to be open
So your heart was destined to be broken
Like smoke you float, a spectral trance
The axis tilts, a cosmic dance
What to do with shattered pieces
To turn the pain to golden fleeces
Breath like smoke, you breathe her in
Where she goes, you're following
She frees you of your earthly form
You let yourself be transformed
As she lifts her lips, just like a chalice
Her body a living palace
You drink deeply from the grail
Flesh on tongue, living communion
Bow and arrow, release of union
Into the fire, you fell
And you burn, burn, burn
She leaves you on the cliff
Of your inner precipice
Wondering who you'll be now
That the world has broken open somehow
And you a child, newly born
Everything beauty, everything torn
Across your face a maddening grin
Knowing full well you'll be burnt again
When she lifts her lips, just like a chalice
Her body a living palace
You drink deeply from the grail
Flesh on tongue, living communion
Bow and arrow, release of union
Into the fire, you fell
and you burn, burn, burn
and you burn, burn, burn
We're all changed by love
We're all freed by love
We're all made pure by love
We're all transformed by love
We're made deeper
We're made bigger
When we meet the Goddess of Love

This song reminds me of Quiet Warrior in a lot of ways.
