My inner demons compel me to be here

Your cheeks are flush like rose petals

You're consumed with rage but I'm consumed with you

Our eyes intertwine through the haze

Intoxicated by your bloodshot stare

In all of my dreams I never thought i'd see

A face that could launch a thousand ships

And the music was like wind in your hair

The moonlight caressed your silhouette

Kiss of ocean mist is in the air

Why must God punish me this way

Lay down my hand the next move is yours

As you undress me with your frozen eyes

In all of my dreams I never thought I'd see

An endless love to share my blue lagoon

And the music was like wind in your hair

The moonlight caressed your silhouette

Kiss of ocean mist is in the air

Why must God punish me this way

Happiness is hard to come by

But I've had my fair share

The satin sheets, the lemon peels

The minor keys, the major pills

We've climbed the mountain, saw the top

And planted the apple seed

And can't you see we could've had it all

And the music was like wind in your hair

The moonlight caressed your silhouette

Kiss of ocean mist is in the air

Why must God punish me this way

And the music was like wind in your hair

The moonlight caressed your silhouette

Kiss of ocean mist is in the air

Why must God punish me this way

Why must God punish me this way

This way, this way, this way ...
