Why cause our passion to run and hide
Drown it beneath the rising tide
And cause it shatter upon this earth
Refuse the wonder of this birth?
Sweet sound of yesterday
Wet lot forbidden fires
And the dark snake of sin
Was coiling deep within
Our hearts were lead astray
Climbing walls of desire
Your poison now awaits
It lurks beneath the skin
Why cause our passion to pay the price
To turn our hearts as cold as ice
And hide behind such filthy lies
To toss our hopes towards the sky
Sweet sound of yesterday
Wet lot forbidden fires
And the dark snake of sin
Was coiling deep within
Our hearts were lead astray
Climbing walls of desire
Your poison now awaits
It lurks beneath the skin
On we strive to a new tomorrow!
Close my eyes, dreams are on my side
Glowing beams shattering my sorrow!
Forevermore surrounded by the light
Sweet sound of yesterday
Wet lot forbidden fires
And the dark snake of sin
Was coiling deep within
Our hearts were lead astray
Climbing walls of desire
Your poison now awaits
It lurks beneath the skin
[2x]
Sweet sound of yesterday
Our hearts were lead astray
Sweet sound of yesterday
