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 rhymes
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
