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 why the wine is flowing,
Oh love, I need you,
I need you,
I need you,
I need you, oh,
I need you now,

And those who dance, begin to dance,
Those who weep begin,
And "Welcome, welcome" cries a voice “
"Let all my guests come in." “

And no-one knows where the night is going,
And no-one knows why the wine is flowing,
Oh love, I need you,
I need you,
I need you,
I need you, oh,
I need you now,

And all go 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 why the wine is flowing,
Oh love, I need you,
I need you,
I need you,
I need you, oh,
I need you now,

All at one the torches 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 why the wine is flowing,
Oh love, I need you,
I need you,
I need you,
I need you, oh,
I need you now,

And here they take their sweet repast,
While house and grounds dissolve,
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 why the wine is flowing,
Oh love, I need you,
I need you,
I need you,
I need you, oh,
I need you now,

Those who dance, begin to dance,
Those who weep begin,
Those who earnestly are lost,
Are lost and lost again,

And no-one knows where the night is going,
And no-one knows why the wine is flowing,
Oh love, I need you,
I need you,
I need you,
I need you, oh,
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 why the wine is flowing,
Oh love, I need you,
I need you,
I need you,
I need you, oh,
I need you now.
