"Possession" lyrics

"Possession"
(originally by Sarah McLachlan)

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
Will I spend forever here and not be satisfied?

And I will 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 decayed
Yeah, you speak to me in riddles and
You speak to me in rhymes
My body aches to breathe your breath
Your words keep me alive

And I will 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 night I stumble
It's morning that I dread
Another day of knowing of
The path I fear to tread
Into the sea of waking dreams
I follow without pride
Nothing stands between us here
And I won't be denied

And I will 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
