lyrics

I came to watch you while you sleep / Naked with a hand around your wrist / I came to watch you while you dream / But I was never here, I do not exist / Was I there in what you dreamed that night? / A premonition of a holy rite, an omen / Burning drops on your shoulder / I do not exist / I never felt so frightened / You’d open up your eyes and / See me for just what I am / So I won’t let it show tonight / My love has no pride / Keep me by your side / Like a concubine / Imagine when you close your eyes / Tell me what it is you see inside / When you leave me, leave me hungry for a kiss / Like I do not exist / I never felt so frightened / You’d look on the horizon / See me for just what I am / So I won’t let it show tonight / My love has no pride / Keep me by your side / Like a concubine / For those of us set by / For those of who hide / For those of us denied / History will make us wives / My love has no pride / Keep me by your side / Like a concubine.
