lyrics

Believing something that isn’t real
Outward color in the face of rapture
The rock they built science out of
This stone has got a bone with the way your shaman sees things
The miracle that walks the streets that you won’t believe
She moves from room to room not so discrete
But I cannot put my finger on what it is about her
Her elegant dark hair and stunning allure
Makes me not care if I become seduced and caught totally unawares
For although I can feel the fire
I just resist the chance to get burned by her wayward desires
And be caught the fool in her trap
For the elusive chance to have her right here in my lap
The way she makes me feel
The coolness of steel and yet her body heat draws me in
Like we have the potential to make perfect synergy
A common lust as the law binding energy
Or a sad tax on the mind bringing the anguish of injury
The temptations are all to high
And the attraction of separate bodies all too great
To wake from the dream and the darkness still of the night
And here sweet silhouette is cast against the rainy street
But is it an aberration or has she been watching my window
From the adjacent roof top
