Dead to The World Lyrics

Dead to the world my body was sleepin' On my mind was nothin' at all Come a mist, an air so appealing I'm here a whisperin', you summoned, I called
I formed me a presence whose aspect was changin' Oh, he would shift, he would not shift at all We sat for a while, he was very engagin' And when he was gone, I was gone on a smile
With a strange way of walkin' And a strange way of breathin' More lives than a cat that let me astray All in all, he captured my heart Dead to the world and I just slipped away
I heard me a music that drew me to dancin' Lo, I turned under his spell I opened my coat but he never came closer I bolted the door and whispered, oh well
With a strange way of walkin' And a strange way of breathin' More lives than a cat that let me astray All in all, he captured my heart Dead to the world and just slipped away
I laid in the rushes, the air was upon me Wonderin', well, I just couldn't discern Will he come back, come back to me? Oh, I whispered will you ever return?
I was feelin' sensations in no dictionary He was less than a breath of shimmer and smoke The life in his fingers unwound my existence Dead to the world alive I awoke
With a strange way of walkin' And a strange way of breathin' Less than a breath of shimmer and smoke The life in his fingers unwound my existence Dead to the world alive I awoke
Alive I awoke (Alive) Alive I awoke (Alive I awoke) Alive (I awoke)
I awoke (I awoke) I awoke (Alive) Alive, alive, oh (Alive) (Alive) Alive, alive, oh Alive, alive, oh
