Lyrics
I keep searching high and low
for a place where I can rest a while
I keep holding you so close
my arms ache and I can barely breathe
I'm under your spell
in a raging storm
you mess with my head
and I want more
I used to be free
and now I'm walking in chains
I follow your tracks
and fade away
your light cast a shadow
in which I've been hiding
will you ever let me go
and wander my own path
like I did before
maybe some day you will know
I've lost my mind through yearning
and all my love is wasted
I keep holding you so close
your soul is what I long for
I used to be free
and now I'm walking in chains
I follow your tracks
and fade away
your light cast a shadow
in which I've been hiding
