here it comes again the burning in the blood the pounding in my brain the rising of the flood every night i pray begging sleep to come but it s so far away way behind the drumbeat of your heart i remember well a night of falling snow reading you a tale from edgar allen poe by the firelight how your dark eyes shone i had no idea it would be so strong the beat of your heart your midnight cry your morning song your salty tears your honey tongue every night i pray begging sleep to come but it s so far away way behind the drumbeat of your heart
