(k.d. lang/Ben Mink)

Save me 
Save me from you 
But pave me 
The way to you 
Lead me upon the captive free 
Gracious and tame like love can be 
Lead me upon 

Spoil me 
Spoil me with you 
And soil me with the world of you 
Watch over me with a mother's eyes 
Judging my worth only to glorify 
Watch over me 

Save me save me 
Save me save me 
Carry 
Carry me through 
And bury all my doubts of you 
Clothe my desire with spell or prayer 
I'll shroud every sign of need I swear 
Clothe my desire 

Save me save me 
Save me save me 
Save me save me 
Save me save me 

. . .

Talking to myself 
Causing great concern for my health 
Where is your head Kathryn 
Where is your head 

I'm trying to escape 
This constant pull towards ache 
Why do you fight Kathryn 
Why do you fight 

Surely hope will arrive soon 
And cure these self induced wounds 
Why hurt yourself Kathryn 
Why hurt yourself 
Why hurt yourself 

Can your heart conceal 
What the mind of love reveals 

I'm talking to myself again 
It's causing great concern for my health 
Where is your head Kathryn 
Where is your head 
Where is your head Kathryn 
Where is your head 

Can your heart conceal 
What the mind of love reveals 
Can your heart conceal 
What the mind of love reveals 
(Can your heart conceal)

(k.d. lang/Ben Mink)

Just a kiss just a kiss 
I have lived just for this 
I can't explain why I've become 
Miss Chatelaine 

Just a smile just a smile 
Hold me captive just a while 
I can't explain why I've become 
Miss Chatelaine 

Every time your eyes meet mine 
Clouds of qualm 
Burst into sunshine 

Just a sigh just a sigh 
Words my love just reply 
I can't explain why I've become 
Miss Chatelaine 
Miss Chatelaine 

Zing!! 

Just a smile just a smile 
Hold me captive just a while 
I can't explain why I've become 
Miss Chatelaine 

Every time your eyes meet mine 
Clouds of qualm 
Burst into sunshine 

Just a kiss just a kiss 
I have lived just for this 
I can't explain why I've become 
Miss Chatelaine 

Miss Chatelaine 
Miss Chatelaine 
Miss Chatelaine

(k.d. lang)

You swim 
Swim through my veins 
Drown me 
In your reign 

My desire 
Carries no shame 
My will 
Will harbour no pain 

Wash 
Wash me clean 
Mend my wounded seams 
Cleanse my tarnished dreams 

Drink 
Drink from my spell 
Quench 
Love's drying well 

Wash 
Wash me clean 
Mend my wounded seams 

. . .


(k.d. lang/Greg Penny)

Shadows 
Now curtain the moon 
But faith swears 
It will shine again soon 
Shine with love 
You've been hiding from me 

Your kiss 
Has hindered the day 
A longing 
That won't go away 
You just keep knocking 
And waking my heart 
Like daylight chasing the dark 

I can exist being caught by your kiss 
Willingly 
Or grant you control 
Of my body and soul 
Ask it and so it shall be 

Shadows 
Now curtain the moon 
Still faith swears 
It will shine again soon 
Shine with love 
You've been hiding from me 
With that love 
You've been hiding from me 

I can exist being caught by your kiss 
Willingly 
Or grant you control 
Of my body and soul 
Ask it and so it shall be 

. . .


(k.d. lang/Ben Mink)

I often wonder 
Is it so 
All I am holding 
Wants let go 
How could I manage 
I don't know 

I often question 
Is it so 
Life's contradictions 
Tend to grow 
Spawning the choices 
And the woe 

But, still somehow thrives this love 
Which I pray I'm worthy of 
Still somehow thrives this love 

I often wonder 
Is it so 
The lessons of patience 
Are learned slow 
And earning of labour 
May never know 

But, still somehow thrives this love 
Which I pray I'm worthy of 
Still somehow thrives this love

. . .


(k.d. lang/Ben Mink)

Keen to the shifting of wind 
I bend to it blind 
To rid these kisses of sin 
That must stay behind 

Sour the fruit of neglect 
The core of my doubt 
Deprived are my veins you infect 
With or without 

Fate must have a reason 
Why else endure the season 
Of hollow soul 
The ground on which we leave on 
How strangely fuels the season 
Of hollow soul 

Seeds of uprooted chance 
Are grains of goodbye 
Waving boughs so slowing dance 
Questioning why 

Fate must have a reason 
Why else endure the season 
Of hollow soul 
The ground on which we leave on 
How strangely fuels the season 
Of hollow soul 
La la la la... 
Fate must have a reason 
Why else endure the season 
Of hollow soul hollow soul 

Fate must have a reason 
Why else endure the season 
Of hollow soul 
La la la la... 
Fate must have a reason 
Why else endure the season 
Of hollow soul 
La la la la... 
Fate must have a reason 
Why else endure the season 
Of hollow soul

. . .


(k.d. lang/Ben Mink)

A thin ice 
Covers my soul 
My body's frozen and my heart is cold 
And still 
So much about me is raw 
I search for a place to unthaw 

Something in me 
Broods love into fear 
It veils my vision leaves my thought 
Unclear 
My eyes 
From blue turn to grey 
Hoping to mask what they say 

I've been outside myself for so long 
Every feeling I had is close to gone 
I've been outside myself for so long 

I have been 
In a storm of the sun 
Basking, senseless to what I've become 
A fool to worship just light 
When after all, it follows night 

I've been outside myself for so long 
Every feeling I had is close to gone 
I've been outside myself for so long 

I've been outside myself for so long 
Every feeling I had is close to gone 

. . .


(k.d. lang/Ben Mink)

Love 
Thing of might and dread 
Stays the saviour and poison to all 
Of heart and head 

Love 
Force of death and birth 
Still lies naked when next to the truth 
So spins the earth 

The tears of love's recall 
Like blood to chocolate fall 
(And) love 
The common salt of thirst 
Runs like water and cuts through the lives 
Of blessed and cursed 

The tears of love's recall 
Like blood to chocolate fall 

The tears of love's recall 

. . .


(k.d. lang/Ben Mink) 

Even through the darkest phase 
Be it thick or thin 
Always someone marches brave 
Here beneath my skin 

Constant craving 
Has always been 

Maybe a great magnet pulls 
All souls towards truth 
Or maybe it is life itself 
That feeds wisdom 
To its youth 

Constant craving 
Has always been 

Craving 
Ah ha 
Constant craving 
Has always been 

Constant craving 
Has always been 
Constant craving 
Has always been 

Craving 
Ah ha 
Constant craving 
Has always been 
Has always been 
Has always been 
Has always been 
Has always been
