Don't You Need

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 on 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
 Who holds the cards
 Now that the joker is wild
 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?
 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
