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
