Lyrics
I can?t sleep
I?m coming out of my skin
And thoughts of you
Are creeping in
Your voice
Whispers in my ear
And all my inhibitions
Just disappear
I feel you taking hold
With you I lose control
And I?m consumed by you
It?s a wicked sin
And I?m giving in
So I?m praying for my soul tonight.
No, I can?t be saved
Though I try to behave
But when I?m with you
I?m wicked.
This dance
This game you play
This seduction
Has left me this way
Entranced
Imprisoned in your stare
Yours for the taking
Or yours to spare
Unglued and overrun
By you; I come undone
My faith stripped away.
It?s a wicked sin
And I?m giving in
So I?m praying for my soul tonight.
No, I can?t be saved
Though I try to behave
But when I?m with you
I?m wicked.
Your blood courses through my veins
Drink it up like sweet champagne
Love that binds me in its chains
Sweet desire I can?t contain
Absinthe minded little games
Slowly driving me insane
You?re my pleasure and my pain
So I keep coming back again.
It?s a wicked sin
And I?m giving in
So I?m praying for my soul tonight.
No, I can?t be saved
Though I try to behave
But when I?m with you
It?s a wicked sin
And I?m giving in
So I?m praying for my soul tonight.
No, I can?t be saved
Though I try to behave
But when I?m with you
I?m wicked.
