The Sacrifice — Symphony X

Your eyes, singing to me sweet lullabies while you lay there in submission Forbidden desire alone in the moonlight hearts afire - burn away our inhibitions

When the stars lose their fire And night steals the morning away Forever and a day I will stay - I will stay here with you my love

Sacrifice, a heartbeat away from paradise All my reason's giving way to temptation Fear and Shame - looking for someone else to blame We're devoured by these fruitless accusations

With every fleeting breath I take Maybe our love was a mistake Eternal life - I'd trade it for One moment beside you...

When the stars lose their fire And night steals the morning away Forever and a day

When the stars lose their fire And night taked the morning away Forever and a day I will stay - I will stay here with you my love
