Pete Murray Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And I'm captured now
Like I've just drank a thousand year potion
Mix your tears into my wine
Please hold my life
And let me know when you are back open
Please embrace my soul
While you find your way
In my heart you'll stay
Well you burn me with your fire
Any faults you had were always hidden by your sweet devotion
Lord I hope you know I'm trying
These dark old clouds still cover me with doubts every moment
Please embrace my soul
While you find your way
However far you roam
In my heart you'll stay
Please embrace my soul
While you find your way
However far you roam
In my heart you'll stay
Please embrace my soul
While you find your way
However far you roam
In my heart you'll stay
You'll stay
