Possession Lyrics - Get Happy!! - Elvis Costello

Listen as the wind blows from across the great divide 

voices trapped in yearning, memories trapped in time 

the night is my companion, and solitude my guide 

would I spend forever here and not be satisfied? 

and I would be the one 

to hold you down 

kiss you so hard 

I'll take your breath away 

and after, I'd wipe away the tears 

just close your eyes dear

5 Totally Underrated Christmas Songs 

Through this world I've stumbled 

so many times betrayed 

trying to find an honest word to find 

the truth enslaved 

oh you speak to me in riddles 

and you speak to me in rhymes 

my body aches to breathe your breath 

your words keep me alive 

And I would be the one 

to hold you down 

kiss you so hard 

I'll take your breath away 

and after, I'd wipe away the tears 

just close your eyes dear 

Into this night I wander 

it's morning that I dread 

another day of knowing of 

the path I fear to tread 

Photos 

oh into the sea of waking dreams 

I follow without pride 

nothing stands between us here 

and I won't be denied 

and I would be the one 

to hold you down 

kiss you so hard 

I'll take your breath away 

and after, I'd wipe away the tears 

just close your eyes...
