Place and time play hard in teh mind and seeking goals of man and woman

I
Take my heart set it on fire I live in your desire

Keep me free from the hell's pain let me live in you again

Taste the lips that drive the soul more precious than gold

I am the wind inside your mind been living there a long time

Each word that I say keeps me in the world this weigh

Only time will my mind bend it is you I love again and again

II

Silent hearts they drive me mad passion given woman I have had

Only you know the truth of love in scotch and vermouth

Whisperer sweet the sound and rain of the body given to a friend

Who will take the love I have left the dream and cast the sad

Wanton lady of the night holds the whiskey holds it damn tight

Know nobody like the wind she is here then gone again

III

Don't you know who I am I am sin striking to win a soul

Only passion dance cold as your mind and body glow

Whisper sweet things in my ear voice and words I need to hear

Wander only from the sound of money and your love going down

Can you taste the wine so fine it is heart beat lost in the brine

love it is a young mans goal for her the taste he sells his soul

IV
Could you be the evening sun a violent stream on a midnight run

wanting lady of my soul owns my body claims my lonely soul

wishing that I could see all the glory of used to be in a bottle built for two

Saw the day dream it was you living in the cell of a child pure and well

want the wrath of all I see and can't accept that you won't be loving me

crying music fills the mind and I am whom I should be this time lost in views of shadow call

She will take me after all in the bed of frozen dreams we talk through all the screams

do you want to lay me down fear and fate awaits Kathy's clown

V

Bottle cries me a song and the world does me all but wrong

soft are the sheets of linger like the death of the singer laid to rest

in each and every way I will find a place to stay in the mind so far away

keep the world in stride as I look for a place to hide all the pain dripping like rain

keep the tablet left in full view of all I own going home sad song now gone

cripple sound breaks the mind of a child so soft and mild bourbon burns going down

Chariot drops low taking me to the slow burning desire of fire pure in her love found
