Love Song to a Vampire Songtext

von Steve Hackett

You came to me at a dark hour in time
Your lips tasted so sublime
You drank in my hopes, my bleeding heart
You promised me a brand new start
You told me I wasn't born till we met
A life before a distant regret
You said that my friends were no good for me
And claimed only you could set me free
Each time you enslave me to your deepest desire
Once again I sing a love song to a vampire
You demanded my undying devotion
Took over all my emotions
But you were away for many a night
Secrectly living another life
I searched for a new love, I ran away
And found a warm place to stay
But I heard your cries, your anger, your lies
A flash of your eyes brought me back inside
Each time you enslave me to your deepest desire
Once again I sing a love song to a vampire
Weaker and colder each time I returned
Desparate to please, I never learned
The door was unlocked, but my heart was in jail
Caught in the web of your spell
I must now finally stake my claim
Retake my own life once again
Set me free, let me breathe
I'll shed the sunlight on your deceit
Each time you enslave me to your deepest desire
Once again I sing a love song to a vampire
