Inkubus Sukkubus - Kissed By Eros lyrics

Life is sweet with all it's mystery
The death of sleep when Eros kissed me
Your hand in mine, descending deeper
With you beside me, sleep is sweeter

The perfect touch of love and fire
The touch that kills with pure desire
A touch of lust that spares no feeling
The touch that sends your senses reeling

Close my eyes with silken thread
Let me rest my heavy head
Close my eyes with silken thread
I am yours when you are not here
I’m mad with pain when you are not here
Mad with longing, you are not here
A silent scream without my god near

Madness, take my senses from me
Rip at my eyes, bring death upon me
Destroy my hearing and my memory
Flesh be gone for you offend me

Close my eyes with silken thread
Let me rest my heavy head
Close my eyes with silken thread

Heart, be quiet, pulse be still now
Eros, go, I’ve had my fill now
You vex my mind, I do not know how
A god of love has to kill now

Body weak, senses drifting
Oh, so sweet, the feeling lifting
Higher still, higher, higher
Stripped of love and dark desire

Close my eyes with silken thread
Weave my dreams in gold and red
Lie here close within my bed
Close my eyes with silken thread
Sing me songs about the dead
Tell me things you’ve never said

Life is sweet with all it's mystery
The death of sleep when Eros kissed me
