Captive

Driving down this stormy freeway
Road and trees still wet with paint
I think of you, my love; tonight
All beauty bears your name

Steam is rising from the road
That lately sped me on
Sleep has fled, but on I go
I race to meet the dawn

My sun rises in your eyes
When you smile the darkness flees the skies

You captivate my wild heart
As I have captured yours
The shipwreck of my weary soul
Lies safe upon your shores

By my life you are lovely
And by all that’s good and true
You are the tangible dream
That all my life I must pursue

Your hair holds the fire of the setting sun
It fans the flame in my heart that you’ve begun

If you cure the soul by means of the senses
If you cure the senses by means of the soul
A whole life spent chasing only pleasure
Will always leave you less than full
But my sweet love whenever I am with you
You’re my feast for both

You captivate this wild heart
As I have captured you
You are my dream, my beautiful dream
That all my life I must pursue

You captivate my wild heart
As I have captured yours
The shipwreck of my weary soul
Lies safe upon your shores
I’m safe upon your shores
Forever I am yours
