Obsession it takes control,
A E B
Obsession it eats me whole,
C#m B E
I can't say the words out loud,

Now you'll live through the ages,
A B A
I can feel your pulse in the pages.
[Chorus]

Whoa Whoa oa

I have written you down,

Now you will live forever,

And all the world will read you,
C#m B
And you will live forever,

In eyes not yet created,

On tongues that are not born,

I have written you down,

Now you will live forever.

Your body lies upon the sheets,

Of paper and words so sweet,

So I wrote you into my verse,

Now you'll live through the ages,

I can feel your pulse in the pages.

I've read her with these eyes,

I have held her in these hands.

And you will live forever.
