Song Lyrics

I had a dream late last night
The water was running low
And my fields were on fire, burning my sky
My body was moving slow
And when I awoke I tasted the sweat of desire in my mouth
And I realized my heart had abducted my mind
And they were last seen headed south
Now I can`t sleep I`m so wired
And I find myself screaming out

Don`t you need don`t you want
Can`t you taste it when you`re alone
Don`t you cry don`t you feel
Sometimes I wonder if you are real
Don`t you bleed
Don`t you need

There`s no quenching the thirst there`s no relief
For the hungry at heart
And as far as you`re concerned I`m just a thief
Entertaining in the dark
But it`s you that holds the cards
Now that the joker is wild

Don`t you want to lay it down
And feel your skin against the ground
Don`t you want to ride the storm
And then sleep inside the calm
Don`t you want to get that high
Don`t you want to be satisfied
Well if you don`t want it from me
Don`t you need

I had a dream late last night
The water was running low
And my fields were on fire burning my sky
How was I to know
That I burn every night in my dreams
And only morning can set me free

Don`t you need don`t you want
Can`t you taste it when you`re alone
Don`t you cry don`t you feel
Sometimes I wonder if you are real
Don`t you bleed
Don`t you need
