Possession Lyrics

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
Would I spend forever here
And not be satisfied
And I would be the one
To hold you down
Kiss you so hard
Ill take your breath away
And after Id wipe away the tears
Just close your eyes dear
Through this world Ive 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
Ill take your breath away
And after Id wipe away the tears
Just close your eyes dear
Into this night I wander
Its 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 wont be denied
And I would be the one
To hold you down
Kiss you so hard
Ill take your breath away
And after Id wipe away the tears
Just close your eyes dear
