Dead To The World

verse 1 Dead to the world my body was sleeping? On my mind was nothin? at all Come a mist an air so appealing I?m here a whisperin’ you summoned I called          verse 2               I formed me a presence whose aspect was changing? Oh he would shift he would not shift at all We sat for a while he was very engaging? And when he was gone I was gone on a smile           With a strange way of walking? And a strange way of breathing? More lives than a cat that led me astray All in all he captured my heart Dead to the world and I just slipped away verse 3            I heard me a music that drew me to dancing? Lo I turned under his spell I opened my coat but he never came closer I bolted the door and whispered oh well           With a strange way of walking? And a strange way of breathing? More lives than a cat that led me astray All in all he captured my heart Dead to the world and just slipped away Instrumental          x 5 verse 4                                                I laid in the rushes the air was upon me Wondering? well I just couldn’t discern Will he come back come back to me? Oh I whispered will you ever return?           Verse 5                       I was feeling? sensations in no dictionary He was less than a breath of shimmer and smoke The life in his fingers unwound my existence Dead to the world alive I awoke           With a strange way of walking? And a strange way of breathing? Less than a breath of shimmer and smoke The life in his fingers unwound my existence Dead to the world alive I awoke Outro                         Alive I awoke (Alive) Alive I awoke (Alive I awoke) Alive     (I awoke) I awoke (I awoke) I awoke (Alive) Alive alive oh (Alive) (Alive) Alive alive oh Alive alive oh
