Lyrics
'Budapest Express ' written by m.barnes & r. benham
steel barb haunts my dreams
this dark, damp wall
surrounds me
tracing the lines
In my mind
i travel back to you...
How deep you are inside
i can't hide
embrace you by night
freedom is in sight
freedom is in sight
freedom is in sight
the wall in place
keeping me from you...
hardwired black angel's sigh
too young to die desire guides me
tracing the lines
in my mind
i travel back to you...
