Steam rising, I toss in the sweltering night Denying, a phantom is just beyond sight Beside me, you're sleeping you're unaware of all my agony Sleep fills in Drags me into a dream I walk on sand on shifting sand footprints in front of me No.... Impressions, I follow along in the foam Obsessions, pulling me further from home He's waiting, this stranger My Judas body longs to run to him I fall down into forbidden arms Upon the sand, the burning sand The cobalt sky ignores my cry Ohhhh! Daybreaking, satiety wrestles with shame Awaking, reality relieves the dream Beside you, I'm sheltered and yet I can't forget that pounding surf I look down, increduality descends I see the sand, the cooling sand upon my feet and on yours Ohhhh! |
