For a while I thought I fell asleep
Lying motionless inside a dream

Then rising suddenly
I felt a chilling breath upon me
She softly whispered in my ear
(Forsaken)

Forsaken...I have come for you tonight
Awaken...Look in my eyes and take my hand
Give yourself up to me

I waited painfully For night to fall again
Trying to silence the fear within me

Out of an ivory mist I felt a stinging kiss
And saw a crimson stain on her lips

I have to know your name
Where have I seen your face before?
My dear one don't you be afraid

Forsaken....I have come for you tonight
Awaken....Look in my eyes and take my hand
Give yourself up to me

Take me far away Close your eyes
And hold your breath To the ends of the earth

Forsaken...I have come for you tonight
Awaken....Look in my eyes and take my hand

Forsaken....Fly away with me tonight
Awaken....Renew my life
Now you are mine Give yourself up to me
