Back to Lyrics

Breathe into me

Come closer, much closer

How do you feel in my arms?

What is revealed in bridges and blue eyes

How do you feel when I smile

I see you once more

Certain you find my door and I

I feel you move in me now

But do you think that I should run

Am I too pale for the Corsican sun?

And do you think I should beware

Or do you think I should give up

The Corsican air

You hold me all night

Like I am your treasure

You hold me so tight I can’t breathe, or leave

But this place where I’m right

Yields nothing in springtime

So let me be wrong but believe

That I see you and I

In visions of desire, and I feel

You move in me now

But if I could I would be wild

Give the wheel to my inner child

Let her tear your world apart

‘Til she’s finished with your heart ‘

Cause she thinks that I should run

‘Cause i’m too pale for the Corsican son

And she knows I’ll never share

Yeah she thinks I should give up

The Corsican heir

The Corsican heir

The Corsican heir

Breathe into me come closer, much closer
