Possession

Sarah McLachlan

4

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...
