Edgar Meyer bass Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

There was a time
When I could breath my life in you
One by one
Your pale fingers started to move
And I touched your face
And all life was erased
You smiled like an angel
(falling from grace)

We've been slaves to this love
From the moment we touched
And keep begging for more
Of this resurrection

We've been slaves to this love
From the moment we touched
And keep begging for more
Of this resurrection

You kissed my lips
With those once cold fingertips
You reached out for me
And oh how you missed
You touched my face
And all life was erased
You smiled like an angel
(Falling from grace)

We've been slaves to this love
From the moment we touched
And keep begging for more
Of this resurrection

We've been slaves to this love
From the moment we touched

And keep begging for more
Of this resurrection

Line by Line Meaning

There was a time
In the past, there was a moment

When I could breath my life in you
When I had the ability to give you my all

One by one
Gradually and one at a time

Your pale fingers started to move
Your lifeless hands began to stir

And I touched your face
I reached out and caressed your cheek

And all life was erased
In that instant, all signs of life disappeared

You smiled like an angel
Your expression was that of a heavenly being

(falling from grace)
(losing your former glory)

We've been slaves to this love
We've been held captive by this affection

From the moment we touched
Since the first time we made contact

And keep begging for more
And continuously ask for more
