lyrics: J. Morse © 1984 Piercing gaze Rays Bursts of fire How they hypnotize How they mesmerize Twinkling stare Hair Smooth attire I can't resist Oh, please desist Seductive walk Talk In candy tones Her silken lines She wines and dines I want her so Oh I hear her moans In my dreams Sometimes it seems Those crimson streams of passion, hopeless screams Why can't I have her? Yesterday's gone, tomorrow to come Plans are made that come undone Relieve the tension, feel the passion Floodlit dreams, wrong reaction Reputation, what will come of it? Wrong persona, champing at the bit The gate is open, the ride has begun Opportunity - the dream is done Hypnotized Criticized Firing line They don't realize The magic in her eyes I'm no messiah Pariah But feeling fine I've got all I need I have no greed I've all the luck Starstruck A puppet's toy Possessing all Yet still learning to crawl They know I've won Run No more a boy Maturity, or Futility My own obscurity takes me to infinity Why do I have her? I've been swept beneath the doormat By all my dearest friends I wouldn't see that useless means Don't justify their ends The shock has hit, I'm all alone Isolated in the lens Of a heartless world with no sympathy Ruled by mindless trends Crimson streams of passion, hopeless screams Why can't I have her? Yesterday's gone, tomorrow to come Plans are made that come undone Relieve the tension, feel the passion Floodlit dreams, wrong reaction Reputation, what will come of it? Wrong persona, champing at the bit The gate is open, but I've regained my head Ignore my feelings, the nightmare's dead Piercing gaze Rays Bursts of fire How they hypnotize How they mesmerize Twinkling stare Hair Smooth attire I can't resist Oh, please desist Seductive walk Talk In candy tones Her silken lines She wines and dines I want her so Oh I hear her moans In my dreams Sometimes it seems Those crimson streams of passion, hopeless screams Why can't I have her? Those crimson streams of passion, hopeless screams No, I won't take her No more stars in my eyes |
