Lyrics
I step through the doorway of my dream
All is still and placid; all is cool
I pause at the threshold - do I dare to enter
The weight of intention like a stone
But I see the answer in your eyes
No crime stands between us, no questions, no lies
We dance in the darkness, delivered from sin
The walls burn away and we have to give in
You walk through the room with a trembling smile
I reach out to touch you with the hands of a child
In your glance is an answer I don?t dare to question
The weight of your gaze falls on me like a stone
Your hands push me down and I crush you to me
It's too late to cry for the secrets we keep
My senses are filled with the touch of your skin
The walls turn to ashes and we have to give in
We move like the ocean, tumbling
The current pulls us down, down
It?s too late to wonder if the tide?s going out
We can?t even see though this moment
We only can embrace what is given
Given
I arrive at the gate and the way lies open
Reduced to agony, I crawl through on my knees
And I heed the summons in your eyes
No crime stands between us, no questions, no lies
We burn in the darkness, skin touching skin
Our defenses give way and we have to give in
Give in
