Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

deep in the night
far off the light
missing my headache
visions of light
sweeter delight
kissin' my loveache

how come I must know
where obsession needs to go?
how come I must know
where the passion hides
its feelings?
how come I must know
where obsession needs to go?
how come I must know
where the passion hides
its feelings?

Deep in the night
far off the light
missing my headache
Visions of light
sweeter delight
kissin' my loveache

how come I must know
where obsession needs to go?
how come I must know
where the passion hides
its feelings?
how come I must know
where obsession needs to go?
how come I must know
the direction of relieving?

Deep in the night
how come I must know
where the passion hides
its feelings?
kissin' my loveache
how come I must know
where obsession needs to go?




how come I must know
the direction of relieving?
