Saboteur

my eyes cast inward, I live as blind
tracing phantoms of my design
frightened, I spiral through the mind
to my surprise I find you here confined
and I see love in you
I see love in you
love burning true

but I'm a saboteur of love's caress
savior of my loneliness
wait for you to make a move
when you do I change my mood

you take my hand and for awhile we stop time
and when you weep you are only mine
but I let darkness back inside
and now you know we cannot abide
I see love in you
I see love in you
love burning true

but I'm a saboteur of love's caress
savior of my loneliness
wait for you to make a move
when you do I change my mood

so love backs away from me
love retreats from memory
love's heat is chilled by this dangerous game
love needs a warmer flame

I see love in you
I see love in you
I do . . .
