Lyrics
There’s a perfect image of you in my imagination:
Your tall handsome hunger towers over me.
You overwhelm me with your dazzling smile,
But it’s the sadness in your eyes that draws me inside-
-and I wrap myself around your imaginary body:
Your luscious figure shaped, statuesque, brawny, ever-strong…
Yes, I wrap myself around your imaginary body:
Your luscious figure shaped, statuesque, brawny, ever-strong…
You’re strong enough to carry me
I get my turn to be weak
In my fantasy you’re strong enough to shelter me.
Yes, you’re strong enough to carry me
I get my turn to be weak
In my fantasy you’re strong enough to shelter me.
(spoken)
But it’s your internal weakness that lashes out to punish me,
And I am reduced to a frightened child
Begging for the comfort of a warm place to sleep.
So I run as fast as I can away-
Leave it as a memory I say:
Live in the fragments of my dreams
Where I can visit you in fits of slumber
But wake up safe in my own bed
After your ravenous soul tries to claim me
Again and again and again and again and again…
I can be taken, but I cannot be tamed!
Take me again and again and again and again and again and again and again…
I can be taken, but I cannot be tamed!
Take me again and again and again and again and again and again and again…
I’ll pay the price to be lonely and heartsick,
But I am wild and dangerous and free-
And I am wild and dangerous and free!
And that is who I will always be!
There’s a perfect image of you in my imagination:
Your tall handsome hunger towers over me.
You overwhelm me with your dazzling smile,
But it’s the sadness in your eyes that draws me inside-
-and I wrap myself around your imaginary body:
Your luscious figure shaped, statuesque, brawny, ever-strong…
Yes, I wrap myself around your imaginary body:
Your luscious figure shaped, statuesque, brawny, ever-strong…
…strong, strong, strong,
In my fantasy it’s you who are strong,
Strong, strong, strong,
In my imagination you are strong.
