Midas Touch

I can remember I was dreaming

In the moonlight, gently I was floating

I didn't know that I was sinking

In my lonely bedsheets I was dying

When you're away

I think that I'll escape

You're a king but you're a slave

This love will end today

I would watch you fall in love

But you love me like a kid

You needed someone close

And I never really did

I'd find you on your knees

And you'd beg for me to be

The woman on your throne

But I'd rather be alone

Do you remember how I loved you?

You would make your lovers into sculptures

You didn't know that I was lonely

And the gifts you brought me could not soothe me

Midas, my dear

No wonder why you're scared

You're a king among the thieves

And your heart belongs to me

I would watch you fall in love

But you love me like a kid

You needed someone close

And I never really did

I'd find you on your knees

And you'd beg for me to be

The woman on your throne

But I'd rather be alone
