[Verse]
Your shadow’s dancing where I can’t go
A silhouette in the undertow
I reach
I fall
I crave the sting
Your name’s the song I’ll never sing
[Prechorus]
The sax hums low
The lights turn blue
What I want is poison
But it feels so true
[Chorus]
I want you
But I can’t
It’s a curse
It’s a chant
You’re the fire I can’t hold
You’re the secret left untold
I want you
But I can’t
[Verse 2]
Your laughter's a melody wrapped in sin
A trumpet wails where my thoughts begin
I hear your footsteps
They echo sweet
But they lead to a world where I can’t compete
[Prechorus]
The flute sighs soft
My heart’s off beat
You’re a riddle I can’t complete
[Chorus]
I want you
But I can’t
It’s a curse
It’s a chant
You’re the fire I can’t hold
You’re the secret left untold
I want you
But I can’t
