VerseCBbGmBbCBbGmBb
Move away from the window and into the light
CBbGmBbCBbGmBbCBbGm
There are some things in this life that you just can't fight
CBbGmBbCBbGmBb
It's as if the spirits above have cast a little spell upon us
CBbGmBbCBbGmBb
It's as if heaven above is beckoning us
CBbGmBb
So let us take off our crosses and lay them in a tin
CBbGmBb
And let our weakness become virtue instead of sin
CBbGmBb
Our bodies stand naked as the day they were born
CBbGmBbCBbGmBb
And tremble like animals before a coming storm

Take me beyond love

Up to something above
AmCFG
Upon this bed, between these sheets
AmGF
Take me to a happiness beyond human reach
InstrumentalCBbGmBbCBbGmBbCBbGmBbVerse CBbGmBb
The force of life is rushing through our veins
CBbGmBb
In and out like the tide it comes in waves
CBbGmBb
The drops of semen and the clots of blood
CBbGmBb
Which may, one day, become like us
CBbGmBb
With outstretched hands reaching beyond love
CBbGmBbCBbGmBb
And up to something above
CBbGmBb
Before our juices run cold and our flesh grows old
CBbGmBb
Let me feed upon your breast and draw closer to your soul
CBbGmBb
Let me stay with you tonight and I'll offer you my world
CBbGmBbC
I'll take you to the angels if you'll take me to myself
