Listen as the wind blows,
from across the great divide
Voices shaped in yearning memories
trapped in time.

The night is my companion,
and solitude my guide,
Would I spend forever here and
not be satisfied?

I would be the one,
to hold you down,
kiss you so hard,
I'd take your breathe away,
and after I'd,
wipe away the tears,
just close your eyes dear.

Through this world I've stumbled,
to many times betrayed,
Dying to find an honest word,
to find the dark enslaved, Oh

You speak to me in riddles,
you speak to me in rhyme,
My body aches to breathe your breath,
your words keep me alive

and I would be the one,
to hold you down,
kiss you so hard,
I'd take your breathe away,
and after I'd,
wipe away the tears,
just close your eyes dear.

Into this night I've wander,
it's meaning I dread,
Another day of knowing,
the path I fear to tread, Oh

Into a sea of waking dreams,
I follow without pride,
Nothing stands between us here,
and I wouldn't be denied.

and I would be the one,
to hold you down,
kiss you so hard,
I'd take your breathe away,
and after I'd,
wipe away the tears,
just close your eyes dear ...
