lyrics

The way you just walked in.
No one saw you.
There were hundreds of me there.
But you chose this one.
I wasn’t ready yet.
Did you know that?
You must have.
You wanted me open.
So you could shape me.
Into something perfect.
Something special.
Only you could do that.
Because you yourself are special.
That’s why you are here.
You carried me away.
So strong and supple.
Why you ran away.
Noone saw us leaving
As we made our escape
Not because you were afraid.
Nothing bothers you.
Not even dying.
Because you are brave.
You turned to me and smiled.
Your eyes were shining.
You wanted control.
I could see myself.
You carried me away.
You are in control.
You made me feel so safe.
Oh, how I want.
You made me feel so special.
I didn’t know that then.
But, how I want you.
How I need you.
You held me in your arms.
Everyone wants you.
Everyone needs you.
I could feel your warmth.
But I have you all to myself.
You can do anything.
I could feel your heart.
You can hunt and kill.
But you don’t kill me.
It felt so secure.
Because you want me.
Because you need me.
