[Verse]
Darling, I loved you
I long to become you
And know what it is that you gave
We dance the sorrow
Forgive me tomorrow
I pray

[Chorus]
Night after night
Day after day
Would you watch my body weaken
My mind drift away?

[Verse]
Dear lover forsaken
Our love is taken away
Well, you're my speaker
My innocence-keeper
I don't

[Chorus]
Night after night
Day after day
Would you watch my body weaken
My mind drift away?
[Verse]
Dear lover forgiven
My love is driven by rage
Oh, I should just leave you
Instead of deceive you
But I don't

[Chorus]
Night after night
Day after day
Would you watch my body weaken
My mind drift away?

[Verse]
I account to no one, hold nobody's ear
I showed you my hand once and you hit me in fear
I don't stand for the devil, I don't whisper in ears
I stand on the mountains and call people to hear

[Bridge]
It's a sudden burst of light
It's a fate foretold
It is knowing, it is knowing

[Verse]
He longs for the answers, as all of us must
He longs for the woman who will conquer his lust
He screams in the night, I scream in the day
We weep in the evening and lie naked and pray
[Chorus]
Night after night
Day after day
Night after night
Day after day
Night after night
Day after day
Would you watch my body weaken
And my mind drift away?

[Outro]
It's a tempting communion
It's a fate foretold
It is knowing, it is knowing
What it is that you're told
