Possession Lyrics

Listen as the wind blows

 from across the great divide,

 Voices trapped in yearning,

 memories trapped in time,

 The night is my companion

 and solitude my guide,

 Would I spend forever here

 and not be satisfied?

 

 And I would be the one

 to hold you down,

 kiss you so hard,

 I'll take your breath away

 and after I'd wipe away the tears,

 Just close your eyes dear

 

 Through this world I've stumbled

 so many times betrayed,

 Trying to find an honest word,

 to find the truth enslaved,

 Oh you speak to me in riddles

 and you speak to me in rhyme

 My body aches to breathe your breath,

 you words keep me alive,

 

 And I would be the one

 to hold you down,

 kiss you so hard,

 I'll take your breath away

 and after I'd wipe away the tears,

 Just close your eyes dear

 

 Into this night I wander,

 it's morning that I dread,

 Another day of knowing of

 the path I fear to tread,

 Oh into the sea of waking dreams

 I follow without pride,

 Nothing stands between us here

 and I won't be denied

 

 And I would be the one

 to hold you down,

 kiss you so hard,

 I'll take your breath away

 and after I'd wipe away the tears,

 Just close your eyes dear
