Every time I see you, those torturous feelings open in my heart
Even though I crave you, we both know our love is a forbidden art
Still you are my one alibi. In your arms I'm safe from my crimes
I close my eyes, you set me free from the things you do to me
Come and turn the lights out, I want you to breathe in, I can feel it
Come and turn the lights out, I want you to breathe in, join me dreaming
And every night I see you, your face alight in the candle glow
The tightrope I walk isn't easy, cause the road I walk isn't meant for two
Still you are my one alibi. In your arms I'm safe from my crimes
I close my eyes, you set me free from the things you do to me
Come and turn the lights out, I want you to breathe in, I can feel it
Come and turn the lights out, I want you to breathe in, join me dreaming
Come and turn the lights out, I want you to breathe in, I can't feel it
Come and turn the lights out, I want you to breathe in, join me screaming
You and me, for all to see, in perpetuity, I can see that we can't stay together forever
Still you are my one alibi. In your arms I'm safe from my crimes
I close my eyes, you set me free from all the things you do to me
Come and turn the lights out, I want you to breathe in, I can feel it
Come and turn the lights out, I want you to breathe in, join me dreaming
Come and turn the lights out, I want you to breathe in, join me screaming
Come and turn the lights out, I want you to breathe in, I can feel it
