Love song for a vampire (Annie Lennox)

Come into these arms again
and lay your body down
There is among this trembling heart,
is beating like a drum.

It beats for you,
It bleeds for you
And knows not how it sounds.

For it is the drum of drums
it is the song of songs
Once I had the fairest rose
that ever came to bloom
Cruel winter chills arrive
and stole my flower too soon.

Oh loneliness, oh hopelessness
to search the ends of time.
For there is in all the world
No greater love than mine.

Love...still falls the rain.
Still falls the night.
Be mine forever.

Let me be the only one
to keep you from the cold
Now the flower fair as day,
the stars of brightest tone.

They shine for you,
They shine for you
They burn for all to see.

Come into these arms again
and set this spirit free.



Precious

Precious little angel
Take a look at what you've done
Well I thought my time was over
But it's only just begun
Precious little angel
You're my own sweet turtle dove
Won't you stay with us for ever
In a bundle full of love

I was lost until you came
Precious little angel
Won't you spread your light on me
I was locked up in the darkness
Now you've come to set me free
I was covered up with sadness
I was drowned in my own tears
I've been cynical and twisted
I've been bitter all these years

I was lost until you came
I was lost until you came

And wouldn't I run a thousand miles
To be with you
And wouldn't I run a thousand miles
To be with you

Precious little angel
Tell me how can it be true
That such a gift from heaven
Has been sent for me and you
Precious little angel
Don't you worry don't you cry
When this bad old world has crumbled
I'll be standing at your side

I was lost until you came
