lyrics

Dark as the night were his eyes
When I caught his gaze I took a bite
From the forbidden fruit
that never should be taken off the vine
Beautiful crescent moon above me
Over the dunes of my desire
Hovering like a stern reminder of where my temptation lies

My life has changed to color from its hues of black and white
Like heaven's coming down to grace me with its paradise
I'm trying to resist it but I must admit that I'm
Not sure what you have unleashed in me
But when you touch my skin it sets me free
I'm jailbird finally released from prison to take flight

Feeling my body ripe with hunger
Feeling my lips parched by by the thirst
Letting a thrill come over me
As I explore your universe
Something inside me starts to tremble
Yet something else feels oh so right
Feeling my senses rise up to the clouds inside my velvet sky

My life has changed to color from its hues of black and white
Like heaven's coming down to grace me with its paradise
I'm trying to resist it but I must admit that I'm
Not sure what you have unleashed in me
But when you touch my skin it sets me free
I'm jailbird finally released from prison to take flight

Free me from this dark and dreary place
Could you be the one to break these chains?
Be that long awaited drop of rain on my burning, desert day

My life has changed to color from its hues of black and white
Like heaven's coming down to grace me with its paradise
I'm trying to resist it but I must admit that I'm
Not sure what you have unleashed in me
But when you touch my skin it sets me free
I'm jailbird finally released from prison to take flight
