On My Skin

© Jacqueline Gawler

(from the album Ambrosia)

I tried to erase you
but on my skin
I know you sealed an invisible deal
you were so so real
on my skin…

the night is blinding black
but your face burns at my pillow
your lips whisper guilty
as i lay in stranger embrace
and try to trace
the moment i left you

and you sealed
an invisible deal
on my skin
on my skin
you had me fingerprinted in,
are you warden of my dawn?

or are you my dreamcatcher
‘cause wherever I dream
you find me 
and bind me
one step ahead
and ready to remind me

are you my dreamcatcher
‘cause wherever I dream,
you find me
and bind me
one step ahead
and ready to remind me...
