My inner demons compel me to be here
Your cheeks are flush like rose petals
You're consumed with rage
But I'm consumed with you

Eyes intertwine through the haze
Intoxicated by your bloodshot stare
In all of my dreams I never thought I'd see
A face that could launch a thousand ships

And the music was like wind in your hair
The moonlight caressed your silhouette
Kiss of ocean mist is in the air
Why must God punish me this way?

Lay down my hand, the next move is yours
As you undress me with your frozen eyes
In all of my dreams I never thought I'd see
An endless love to share my blue lagoon

And the music was like wind in your hair
The moonlight caressed your silhouette
Kiss of ocean mist is in the air
Why must God punish me this way?

Happiness is hard to come by but I've had my fair share
The satin sheets, the lemon peels, the minor keys, the major pills
We've climbed the mountain
Saw the top and planted the apple seed
And can't you see we could've had it all

And the music was like wind in your hair
The moonlight caressed your silhouette
Kiss of ocean mist is in the air
Why must God punish me?

And the music was like wind in your hair
The moonlight caressed your silhouette
Kiss of ocean mist is in the air
Why must God punish me this way?

Why must God punish me this way?
This way, this way
