lyrics
You always had your faith, it wasn’t hard to find
I remember how your body was so close to mine
Can you feel my heart? You know it’s beating fast
And can you build my soul, and make it built to last?
Oh won’t you give me a sign cos there is nothing of mine
Now I’ve opened my eyes and admitted my lies
Give up give in and confess my sins
You know where I’ve been, you’ve seen what I’ve seen
Well can you keep me close? Don’t keep me at arms length
Oh exercise my ghost, and give me strength
Well can be my guide, and lead me on your string
Well to you I confide & tell everything
Oh won’t you give me a sign cos there is nothing of mine
Now I’ve opened my eyes and admitted my lies
Give up give in and confess my sins
You know where I’ve been, you’ve seen what I’ve seen
Can you be my candlelight, cos I have been so blind?
Well if you don’t shine too bright, I’ll be left behind
Won’t you give me a sign, cos there is nothing of mine?
I never had to ask, it was over so fast
Give up give in and confess my sins
You know where I’ve been, you’ve seen what I’ve seen
Can you be my candlelight, cos I have been so blind?
Well if you don’t shine too bright, I’ll be left behind
I remember how your body was so close to mine
Can you feel my heart? You know it’s beating fast
And can you build my soul, and make it built to last?
Oh won’t you give me a sign cos there is nothing of mine
Now I’ve opened my eyes and admitted my lies
Give up give in and confess my sins
You know where I’ve been, you’ve seen what I’ve seen
Well can you keep me close? Don’t keep me at arms length
Oh exercise my ghost, and give me strength
Well can be my guide, and lead me on your string
Well to you I confide & tell everything
Oh won’t you give me a sign cos there is nothing of mine
Now I’ve opened my eyes and admitted my lies
Give up give in and confess my sins
You know where I’ve been, you’ve seen what I’ve seen
Can you be my candlelight, cos I have been so blind?
Well if you don’t shine too bright, I’ll be left behind
Won’t you give me a sign, cos there is nothing of mine?
I never had to ask, it was over so fast
Give up give in and confess my sins
You know where I’ve been, you’ve seen what I’ve seen
Can you be my candlelight, cos I have been so blind?
Well if you don’t shine too bright, I’ll be left behind
