Have you ever lusted for someone you can't have..
THUMP, THUMP, THUMP...
WHEN I SEE YOUR NAME,
THAT'S ALL I HEAR.

THUMP, THUMP, THUMP...
WHEN I SEE YOUR FACE,
THAT'S ALL I HEAR.

FLITTERING MUSCLES,
THUMPING HEART.
WHY DO WE HAVE TO BE APART?

GRASPING AT STRAWS
TO GET A LOOK,
I'M TRYING TO PLAY
THIS BY THE BOOK.

I WANT TO TELL YOU
WHAT'S ON MY MIND,
BUT, WHAT'S IN MY HEART
YOU CAN NEVER FIND.

ANOTHER LIFE,
ANOTHER BOOK
INTO TIME I WISH
I COULD LOOK...

WHAT IS MY FATE?
AND WHAT IS YOURS?
AT THE THOUGHT OF "NEVER"
SADNESS POURS.

HAND TO HAND,
ELECTRICITY FLOWS,
A FEELING THAT
ONLY I CAN KNOW.

INTO MY HEART,
INTO MY SOUL,
MY DESIRE FOR YOU
BURNS HOT AS COAL.

BUT, IN MY CONSCIENCE,
GUILT IS NEAR,
FOR I KNOW THIS
IS HIS DEEPEST FEAR.

NOTHING TO DO,
NOT NOW ANYWAY.
BUT ALWAYS REMEMBER...
ANOTHER DAY...
