Aphrodite, greek goddess of love
Can you hear this girl cry?
Can you feel the longing that pulls this girl’s heart?
Women and men turned to you to ease their pain.
For me, I ask, won’t you do the same?
You were blown to the island of Cythera
With Love and Desire accompanying you.
They have decided to follow this girl
but she isn’t as strong or as lovely as you.
So this is the one thing I ask:
Your divine duty was to make love.
Let me do the same to the one my heart seeks for.
When that day comes, let me reveal my inner emotions:
That no one in this world can compare
That he is perfect, and so is this love that we share.
We have so much more than I thought we ever would.
I love him so much more than I thought I could.
Aphrodite, greek goddess of love.
Do you remember your first love?
Do you remember your pain when the handsome youth passed away?
Though my situation may seem in no comparison.
I am not as strong as you, so the pain hold, but like benison.
Three more weeks, I ask
be there with me.
For I love this man
As you first loved Abonis.
