|
Once in a night |
|
I spent in istanbul |
|
I had a dream of a forbidden world |
|
Where even angels |
|
Fear to look upon |
|
A place where all of love is doomed to die |
|
Her face appeared |
|
Through clouds of bitter wine |
|
Sour as the morning's early hours |
|
She took my hair |
|
And she curled it around |
|
Her fingers |
|
I was but a fool for love |
|
The scent of turkish oils |
|
Mixed with the harsh tobacco |
|
In the overcrowded bar |
|
Hashish |
|
And cool mint in her hair |
|
I was a fool for love |
|
I was a fool |
|
She sang to me |
|
A torch song softly laced |
|
With mysteries arabian |
|
It poisoned my mind |
|
A sickness in my soul |
|
I tried |
|
I didn't want to hear at all |
|
A curtain fell |
|
Before my eyes i did |
|
Succumb into her healing breast |
|
She sang that song |
|
I gave her all my soul |
|
And my all |
|
To the pleasures of the flesh |
|
I cried that night |
|
For those forsaken times |
|
Those times when i was |
|
Simply satisfied |
|
I turned to dust |
|
That night a thousand times |
|
That night a thousand times i died inside |
|
And through what's left |
|
Of my sad life i hear |
|
Her singing in the fevers of the night |
|
Look into the mirror of my eyes |
|
And tell me what you see |
|
It's not your love i need |
|
You'll see |
|
Sorrow, tears and darkness |
|
These are the pleasures |
|
Beyond your dreams |
|
I found myself |
|
Down by the sea |
|
A hundred years ago |
|
When i was in my teens |
|
And years go by |
|
I turned into a man |
|
My childhood trapped within the sand |
|
I crawled through life |
|
On broken glass through hell |
|
It seems i wakened my desires |
|
And woke one day |
|
Wet with the sweat of fear |
|
Wet with the sweat of fear |
|
As now with you |
|
I'll reveal your mother |
|
Come to me |
|
I'll take you to the safety of the womb |
|
Tell me your secrets |
|
Sorrow tears and darkness |
|
Pour out your heart |
|
Sorrow tears and darkness |
|
You'll be a fool |
|
A fool for love |
|
And hell had never seemed so good |
|
As when i lost my soul |
|
Became a fool for love |
|
Help me, please to find my way |
|
Look into the mirror of my eyes |
|
Your kiss has clouded up my mind |
|
And tell me what you see |
|
I was a fool, a fool for love |
|
It's not your love i need |
|
I cried for those forsaken times |
|
You'll see |
|
She took my soul in istanbul |
|
Sorrow tears and darkness |
|
She left me on that night to die |
|
These are the pleasures beyond your dreams |
|
These are the pleasures beyond all my dreams |
|
I am lost |
|
Help me to find my way |
|
Here in a world where angels fear to gaze |
|
My love is doomed to die |
|
Alone tonight in istanbul |
|
And i a fool |
|
For |
|
Love |
