Sarah McLachlan Vox song lyrics

In the desert of my dreams I saw you there

And I'm walking towards the water steaming body cold and bare

But your words cut loose the fire and you left my soul to bleed

And the pain that's in your truth's decieving me, has got me scared

Oh Why?

Through your eyes the strains of battle like a brooding storm

You're up and down these pristine velvet walls like focus never forms

My walls are getting wider and my eyes are drawn astray

I see you now a vague deception of a dying day

Oh Why?

I fall into the water and once more I turn to you

And the crowds were standing, staring, faceless, cutting off my view to you

They start to limply flail their bodies in a twisted mime

And I'm lost inside this tangled web in which I've lain entwined

You're gone and I'm lost inside this tangled web in which I've lain entwined

Oh Why?
