you are an obsession, i cannot sleep
i am a possession, unopened at your feet
there's no balance, no equality
be still, i will not accept defeat
i will have you, yes, i will have you
i will find a way and i will have you
like a butterfly, a wild butterfly
i will collect you and capture you
(chorus)
you are an obsession
you're my obsession
who do you want me to be
to make you sleep with me
you are an obsession
you're my obsession
who do you want me to be
to make you sleep with me
i feed you i drink you
by day and by night
i need you, i need you
by sun or candlelight
you protest, you want to leave
stay, oh, there's no alternative
your face appears again, i see the beauty there
but i see danger, stranger beware
of circumstance, in your naked dreams
your affection is not what it seems
(chorus)
my fantasy has turned to madness
and all my goodness has turned to badness
my need to possess you has consumed my soul
my life is trembling, i have no control
i will have you, yes, i will have you
i will find a way and i will have you
like a butterfly, a wild butterfly
i will collect you and capture you
