You have a power over me
That I never, never meant
To give you
We can walk the pavement down to the water
On a night like this
And oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, and we
Can never be on the fence

You steal the light in every room
And I'm helpless, helpless to ignore you
You can wear your sweater
And we can find our supper
In an apple tree
And oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, and we
Can never be on the fence

And every cell of skin in me
It will grieve you
Grieve you like
The winter
Bury my desire
Till I hear your name
Oh I see you
See you with
A stranger

You have a power over me
That I never, never meant
To give you
