Drink your wine and lie down
Let is wash over you
dream of that wealth of curls as a dress
covering both
Wither away the feelings of despair in your heart
Make the dream sing your sorrows away
See him and then see her dance a dance
in your innermost self
See them dance, feel the hunger, kiss their
lips while you feel them on yours
Drink in, drink some more in
drink the red blood of wine in your veins
Drink in, drink their blood in
Dream them near to the place where you sleep
Ohhhh oho, dream them
Dream them in you, share that sensual heat in your veins
Grab yourself in a near desparate plea
Make the world obey to your wish
Take a handful of curls in your fist
Force that sensual mouth to obey
Dream it, drink and live it, drink till dawn ends the
red in your cup. Drink it, drink and dream it, till
you drop down in loneliness with yourself
Close your eyes before it hits you that
It was only yourself in the first place
That it was no one but you
No one
but you
