lyrics

I am lost on the streets of abandon
Watching my life sinking through the floor
Knowing not, where to look for deliverance
Knowing not, where to find salvations door

Then I met you, with your touch so electric
To ignite such a love, as I’ve never known
A life’s love, dreamt of as epic
In your arms, I feel I am home

But, I am lost, the street is boss
At so much cost, no dice to toss

Locked in the gateway of heartache
Locked at its floodgate, while wanting you
I’ve never known such a passion full
Trapped on the street, while desiring you

In your arms, I feel so protected
As we caress, our Heaven is found
Your kisses, alive with enchantment
In our light, is this love unbound

Where’s that God’s gift, I must not miss
Streets are not this, let love exist

Locked in the gateway of heartache
Locked in this hellgate from having you
Not breaking free for what I must do
Lost ever to roam, while desiring you
