Body Slave |
| Take me to the light |
| Take me to the mystery of life |
| Take me to the light |
| Let me see the edges of the night |
| He’s got the answer — we’ll live forever |
| Take me to the light, give me what I crave |
| He knows the meaning, he shows we’re dreaming |
| Take me to the light |
| And let me be your body slave |
| Body slave |
| She said — I wanted all the wealth and fame, fancy name |
| My life in lights, the time was right |
| And I was right for the role, but nobody liked me |
| He came along when my life was down, hit the the ground |
| I didn’t hesitate — we meditated |
| And he sated my soul |
| He took control |
| Now fame is just another illusion |
| My name will one day be forgotten |
| But in these times of confusion |
| I know that I have been chosen |
| Take me to the light |
| Take me to the mystery of life |
| Take me to the light |
| Let me see the edges of the night |
| He’s got the answer — we’ll live forever |
| Take me to the light, give me what I crave |
| He knows the meaning, he shows we’re dreaming |
| Take me to the light |
| And let me be your body slave |
| Body slave |
| She says — I never feel a sense of greed or of need |
| He will provide and I’ll survive |
| On the light of his love, begging on the freeways |
| He gives freely of all that’s learned, in return |
| Some minor favors like delivering the savior |
| A dollar or two or bringing you |
| Money’s just another confusion |
| And destiny can be an illusion |
| So let him be the one decide |
| You’ll go to paradise |
| Your soul’s the only price |
| Take me… |
| Take me to the light |
| Take me to the light |
| Take me to the mystery of life |
| Take me to the light |
| Let me see the edges of the night |
| Take me to the light |
| Take me to the mystery of life |
| Take me to the light |
| Let me see the edges of the night |
