Lyrics


One Caress

Well I'm down on my knees again

And I pray to the only one

Who has the strength

To bear the pain

To forgive all the things that I've done


Oh girl

Lead me into your darkness

When this world is trying it's hardest

To leave me unimpressed

Just one caress

From you and I'm blessed


When you think you've tried every road

Every avenue

Take one more look

At what you found old

And in it you'll find something new


I'm shying from the light

I always loved the night

And now you offer me eternal darkness


I have to believe that sin

Can make a better man

It's the mood that I am in

That's left us back where we began


Oh girl

Lead me into your darkness

When this world is trying it's hardest

To leave me unimpressed

Just one caress

From you and I'm blessed


Oh girl

Lead me into your darkness

When this world is trying it's hardest

To leave me unimpressed

Just one caress

From you and I'm blessed
