You were my speaker, my innocence-keeper

My mind drift away?

Dear lover forgiven, my love is driven by rage
Oh I should just leave you, instead I've deceived you
But I don't, night after night, day after day
Would you watch my body weaken
my mind drift away?

I count to no one, hold nobody's ear

He longs for the answers, as all of us must
   A5
He longs for the woman who will conquer his lust

and my mind drift away?
