Song Lyrics

Immense and whole the power
Of a dream that has come true
Her strength held back the hours
And spread shadow on the truth
Destiny's daughter, her fatal beauty speaks
Now I taste the experience of her lies and self deceit

[Chorus]
(Rapture) Beginning of the end
(Rapture) Be ready to defend

In the flesh commanding passion,
Glaring lust into my eyes
I'm blinded by her spirit, not yet knowing her disguise
And I know that deep inside,
When my trust becomes a fact
I'll pull out, she'll pull away And stab me in the back

[Chorus]

Commanding with action
Like a fever driven molten spike
I drill her till her skin can crawl
Then she sets me up for the fall

[Chorus]

Immense and whole power
Of a dream that has come true
Overwhelming, never ending
Brings the fever out in you
Away you'll wail, until you're pail
With a craze of passion flow
When it ends it all depends
Get in or you'll never know

[Chorus]

Deborah Harry, Christopher Stein
