More Than Once
I've crept into your mind
more than once, too many times
conscious sun that drives me away
breaking clouds with the dawn's rays
you thought that you wanted me
you think that you don't
while you mull it over
I'm already gone
I drop in to see you again and again
the touch of a lover the guise of a friend
wanting what I offer but only for one night
selling your soul by the candle's dim light
you thought that you needed me
you think that you don't
you turn over to hold me
I'm already gone
