The Guests

One by one the guests arrive The guests are coming through The open-hearted many The broken-hearted few And no one knows where the night is going And no one knows where the wine is flowing Oh love, I need you, I need you, I need you, I need you I need you now And those who dance, begin to dance Those who weap, begin And welcome, welcome cries of voice Let all my guests come in And no one knows where the night is going And no one knows where the wine is flowing Oh love, I need you, I need you, I need you, I need you I need you now And all goes stumbling through that house In lonely secrecy Saying do reveal yourself Or why has thou forsaken me And no one knows where the night is going And no one knows where the wine is flowing Oh love, I need you, I need you, I need you, I need you I need you now All at once the tortures flare The inner door flies open One by one they enter there In every style of passion And no one knows where the night is going And no one knows where the wine is flowing Oh love, I need you, I need you, I need you, I need you I need you now And here they take their sweet repast Wild house and grounds resolve And one by one the guests are cast beyond the garden wall And no one knows where the night is going And no one knows where the wine is flowing Oh love, I need you, I need you, I need you, I need you I need you now For those who dance, begin to dance Those who weap, begin Those who earnestly are lost Are lost, and lost begin And no one knows where the night is going And no one knows where the wine is flowing Oh love, I need you, I need you, I need you, I need you I need you now One by one the guests arrive The guests are coming through The broken-hearted many The open-hearted few And no one knows where the night is going And no one knows where the wine is flowing Oh love, I need you, I need you, I need you, I need you I need you now
