Within the Fortress of My Heart

I am melting like a snowflake
upon the heat of my windowpane
why does my mind surrender
to the pleas of my hearts campaign

Why does my heart kneel upon my soul
pleating to understand its love

I trusted my mind to be in control
I was free as a turtle dove

But suddenly..my mind surrenders
dropping artillery to the ground
Taken again inside the fortress
the fortress where my mind is bound

Gagged and tied ..no escape
a prisoner..at barrel of hearts gun

I guess i have to wait until the key
is presented by the hand of fate
but now my heart is in control
Mmmm....i can hardly wait

Once upon a time there was a light in my life, now theres only love in the dark, There's nothing I can do, a total eclipse of the heart.

What is that you express in your eyes? It seems to me more than all the words I have read in my life.
