I’ve traded myself for your soul, a look inside
In you I found a place where I can hide
I can get lost in your world and drown
Your face, your smile, your eyes so brown

I love you more than I can handle
From the moment you made love to me in the light of a candle
You looked in my eyes and whispered just the right thing
I live in your kingdom and you’re my king

I feel connected to you with my entire soul
When I’m around you I finally feel whole
I wanna dance with you until our bodies melt as one
Baby without you I’m nothing, I’m undone

Now I’m too busy wondering how long you will stay
I’ll do anything for you, say it, I’ll obey
Without your love I’m nothing but dust
In you I find my true self, in you I trust
