(Lake, Sinfield)

Lend your love to me tonight
|
Don't ask me who or what is right
|
I have no strenght I cannot fight
|
Just flood my darkness with your light
|
I need no face I need no name
|
No martyr's artificial shame
|
No crucifix I am not lame
|
And yet I ache to feel the flame
|
Arrest the sun and shoot the moon
|
The lamp of laughter dies too soon
|
To live reflected in a spoon
|
Makes it too hard to stay in tune
|
Believe me
|
|
Unlock the door and unbar the gate
|
I'll write I love you on the slate
|
And while St. Peter's thieves debate
|
The price of time I will not wait
|
Or let the star blind road of fate
|
Confuse me
|
Abuse me
|
Misuse me
|
|
Release my soul release my eyes
|
A clock unwinds a flower dies
|
Dishonesty disqualifies
|
You win the race but lose the prize
|
A tattered cloak behind the throne
|
It is unseen it is not known
|
Behind this face I am alone
|
I would give everything I own
|
To touch you...
|
|
Just lend your love to me once more
|
Don't ask me what I came back for
|
Just watch the moonlight cross the floor
|
And as your blood begins to roar
|
You'll feel your senses spin and soar
|
You will become my meteor
|
Divine and universal whore
|
Complete me
|
