"Well you raved out loud and you talked in your sleep, and the words that you spoke were like honey and rain"

I’M ALWAYS ON
Well you raved out loud
And you talked in your sleep
And the words that you spoke
Were like honey and rain
And as your maiden palm
Touched the jewelled sky
You said “Dream for me
Or would that turn you off?”
I’m always on
I can’t turn off
This raging heart
With a rose in your teeth
And a rose in your cheek
You wept before your father
With your head in his hands
Then you pierced my soul
With your jet blue eyes
And said “Wake me up
Or have you knocked off?”
I’m always on
I can’t turn off
This raging heart
This raging heart
This raging heart
