Paths Of Desire

October Project

I have traveled the paths of desire

gathering flowers and carrying fire

Raising a grave to the reasons behind me

Looking for strength as you live to remind me

I'm drawn to you

I'm caught in you

I am the fly who dreams of the spider

The path to the web becomes deeper and wider

I dream of the silk that is tangled inside you

And know that I want to be somewhere beside you

I'm drawn to you

I'm caught in you

In your eyes

All of the promises

All the lies

Will you keep all the promises

In your eyes

I am crossing the bridges of sorrow

Empty with yearning and full of tomorrow

The river is high and the bridges are burning

I know I've been hurt but I keep on returning

I'm drawn to you

I'm caught in you

In your eyes

All of the promises

All the lies

Will you keep all of the promises

In your eyes

I have traveled the paths of desire

following smoke and remembering fire

The night is falling, the path is receding

I don't need to see it to know where it's leading

In your eyes

All of the promises

All the lies

Will you keep all of the promises

In your eyes
