When you hit your note It's like you had no choice I can't resist distraction's web When you use that voice On a crowded stage I play soliloquy I'm at the center of the earth When you gaze on me The familiar ring of the native drums Sometimes I hardly recognize it Inspiration comes With the tip of my mind Holding back the sea I have no choice but to prevail When you gaze on me I've got the ghost of a new machine Where I can find reality routine Every time you fix your gaze on me When you gaze on me I feel a ring of fire When you gaze on me And I lose all desire Fix your heart on me I'll show you what I've memorized Fix your gaze on me I need to see your eyes (uh - good god!) Out in the cold the assassin waits Armored by love no sword can penetrate Every time you fix your heart on me I'm a new machine Where I can find reality routine Every time you fix your gaze on me
