About the Artist
Lyrics
There was a time my world belong with you But I was so misguided in our youth I couldn't help but drink this poison brew You had a strange perception of the truth Oh, baby, I remember you Oh baby, I remember you 'Cause your heart is cold And your blood runs dry You'll never see or hear the crashing of the sea The tempest rise, it stops all time When lovers eyes are locked in harmony I was aware that danger lay ahead And I couldn't bare this stranger in my head Well, you've got a face (you've got a face) Well, you've got a soul Oh, he ain't got nothing Not even our hope I give it a try, a long time ago And your face was designed But you didn't know Oh, baby, I remember you 'Cause your heart is cold And your blood runs dry You'll never see or hear the crashing of the sea The tempest rise, it stops all time When lovers eyes are locked in harmony 'Cause your heart is cold And your blood runs dry You'll never hear or feel the crashing of the sea The tempest rise, that stops all time When lovers eyes are locked in harmony
