Lyrics
I hit the wall and came on down
A northern boy, a southern town
And wasn't my surrender swift
To your wicked gift, your wicked gift?
And it became my daily goal
To mesmerize you, heart and soul
And every night my thoughts would drift
To your wicked gift, your wicked gift
All those eager dreams I used to dance before your eyes
I might have known you'd be the one I'd never realize
Cause empty-handed I remained
With every pretext I could frame
To walk across that chasm rift
To your wicked gift, your wicked gift
Your wicked gift
All those eager dreams I used to dance before your eyes
I might have known you'd be the one I'd never realize
And now the crisis time has passed
I'm coming to myself at last
The veils are gone, the curtains lift
On your wicked gift, your wicked gift
Your wicked gift
