Lyrics
I've been despised by many men like you
So I shouldn’t want you the way that I do
You've got a smile like the sunrise on a Summer day
It burns my eyes but I can't look away
This wicked love can't be requited
But I don't want to fight it
Don’t ask me why I crave your warmth
I've never denied myself a vice before
Your eyes shy away when they meet my gaze
I know it wouldn't be right to lead you astray
I know it wouldn't be right
I could possess you
If I wanted to
The same way
That I've been possessed by you
Just give me time
And I swear I'll make you mine
Can you feel my fiendish desire, licentious and grotesque
Like an icy breath down your neck
I’ve seen your heart, virtuous and chaste
Still I can’t help imagining the way you taste
I can’t be the one that you belong to
That doesn’t mean I don’t want you
Don’t ask me why I crave your warmth
I've never denied myself a vice before
Your eyes still shy away when they meet my gaze
But you’re far too clever to fall for my evil ways
You’re far too clever to fall
I will possess you
If you want me to
The same way
That I've been possessed by you
But if you let me in
You'll never get me out again
Can’t you see you’ve got me bound at the wrists?
You're so close now, and I just can't resist
This kind of yearning should never exist
Like a demon for an exorcist
This wicked love can't be requited
But I don't want to fight it
Don’t ask me why I crave your warmth
I've never denied myself a vice before
Your eyes still shy away when they meet my gaze
Your hands are trembling, I know you’re afraid
Your hands are trembling
I could possess you
If I wanted to
The same way
That I've been possessed by you
Just give me time
And I swear I'll make you mine
I will possess you
If you want me to
The same way
That I've been possessed by you
But if you let me in
You'll never get me out again
