LOST IN YOUR ARMS
Your footsteps through my poem
Crack softly below
The china leaves on the grass
In the wilds of the faith that you gave to me
Lost in your arms
And I wanna feel your hunger
Confined in your silk cocoon
Faustian dreams of feckless finery
Lost in your arms
The ruby stones that you cast
Through the sunset glass
Bring the night time to the day
Blazing stars navigate the way for me
Lost in your arms
And I wanna feel your hunger
Confined in your silk cocoon
Faustian dreams of feckless finery
Lost in your arms
I knew that the chalice was poisoned
I heard you being torn on the wheel
I saw your sacred heart embraced by eternity
Lost in your arms
An angel sewed my tattered wings to your destiny
Lost in your arms
And I wanna feel your hunger
Confined in your silk cocoon
Faustian dreams of feckless finery
Lost in your arms
