I've Crossed Oceans Of Wine To Find You

H.I.M. · Other Songs - H.I.M.

There was a time when I

Could breathe my life into you

One by one your pale fingers

Started to move

And I touched your face

And all death was erased

And you smiled like an angel

Falling from heaven

Just to be lift up again

And you kissed my lips

And with those once cold fingertips

You brought me back to life

And all things come to an end

We don't have to pretend

Slowly we fall asleep

And never wake up again

We're so Christlike

We're so lifelike

Vampire Christ

We're so alive

We're so lifelike

Vampire Christ

In the grace

Of our love

We writhe in pain

And death is not far away

And soon we'll sleep

And never wake up again

There was a time when I

Could breathe my life

Into you

And all things come to an end

We don't have to pretend

Slowly we fall asleep

We're Christlike

So lifelike

Vampire Christ

We're so lifelike

So Christlike

A Vampire Christ
