Until I Have You

Song information


I will float your name upon the night
And founder deep in dripping-desert sheets
Trust in signs and omens, second sight
And walk oblivious through ragged streets
UNTIL I HAVE YOU

UNTIL I HAVE YOU
UNTIL I HAVE YOU
UNTIL I HAVE YOU
UNTIL I HAVE YOU
Until you're mine

Pleasure's wasted, pain is but a cry
Barely heard above the bedlam in my head
Fever, chill and still the days go by
I will conjure you with every breath.

-refrain-

Persuade the rain to drop my name into your hand
The road to lead you to me by design
Charge the sun to ease you down into my arms
The same one blesses your sky, burns in mine

Captured like quicksilver, I am doomed
To this cruel elation, there's no cure, no cure
Until, beneath a green electric moon
A crazy wind unfurls you to my door

UNTIL I HAVE YOU
UNTIL I HAVE YOU
UNTIL I HAVE YOU
UNTIL I HAVE YOU
Until you're mine

Yeah
