Sanctum Sanctorum

Lyrics

[Instrumental Intro] [Verse 1] I know it's late, and I should go to bed But I can't tear away from the night It holds the seed of a memory It's true of you [Chorus] When first I saw you, I realised The fire burned deep behind your eyes I knew a kiss would paralyse It's true from you [Verse 2] Awake in the night to whisper your name Only silence replies, its answer a sleeping refrain The moments die, but memory stays Love like a carnival's runaway ride We spin and we climb To where once sirens cried And then sometimes angels can be devils too It's true of you It's true of you [Chorus] When shadows no longer fall And footsteps can't be heard at all I hear the ghost of a call It's true from you [Verse 3] Awake in the night to whisper your name Only silence replies, it's answer a sleeping refrain The moments die, but memory stays Reaching for something that's just out of reach Lost to your lips and drowned in your kiss The tide of your passion is now but a dream [Outro] It's but a dream It's but a dream It's but a dream
