Out Of My Soul [remix Edit] Lyrics - Marc Almond

Once in a night 

I spent in Istanbul 

I had a dream of a forbidden world 

Where even angels 

Fear to look upon 

A place where all of love is doomed to die 

Her face appeared 

Through clouds of bitter wine 

Sour as the morning's early hours 

She took my hair 

And she curled it around 

Her fingers 

I was but a fool for love 

The scent of Turkish oils 

Mixed with the harsh tobacco 

In the overcrowded bar 

Hashish 

And cool mint in her hair 

I was a fool for love 

I was a fool 

She sang to me 

A torch song softly laced 

With mysteries Arabian 

It poisoned my mind 

A sickness in my soul 

I tried 

I didn't want to hear at all 

A curtain fell 

Before my eyes I did 

Succumb into her healing breast 

She sang that song 

I gave her all my soul 

And my all 

To the pleasures of the flesh 

I cried that night 

For those forsaken times 

Those times when I was 

Simply satisfied 

I turned to dust 

That night a thousand times 

That night a thousand times I died inside 

And through what's left 

Of my sad life I hear 

Her singing in the fevers of the night 

Look into the mirror of my eyes 

And tell me what you see 

It's not your love I need 

You'll see 

Sorrow, tears and darkness 

These are the pleasures 

Beyond your dreams 

I found myself 

Down by the sea 

A hundred years ago 

When I was in my teens 

And years go by 

I turned into a man 

My childhood trapped within the sand 

I crawled through life 

On broken glass through hell 

It seems I wakened my desires 

And woke one day 

Wet with the sweat of fear 

Wet with the sweat of fear 

As now with you 

I'll reveal your mother 

Come to me 

I'll take you to the safety of the womb 

Tell me your secrets 

Sorrow tears and darkness 

Pour out your heart 

Sorrow tears and darkness 

You'll be a fool 

A fool for love 

And hell had never seemed so good 

As when I lost my soul 

Became a fool for love 

Help me, please to find my way 

Look into the mirror of my eyes 

Your kiss has clouded up my mind 

And tell me what you see 

I was a fool, a fool for love 

It's not your love I need 

I cried for those forsaken times 

You'll see 

She took my soul in Istanbul 

Sorrow tears and darkness 

She left me on that night to die 

These are the pleasures beyond your dreams 

These are the pleasures beyond all my dreams 

I am lost 

Help me to find my way 

Here in a world where angels fear to gaze 

My love is doomed to die 

Alone tonight in Istanbul 

And I a fool 

For 

Love
