Palace of Pleasure lyrics

Oh, I made love to you last night

in my dreams, boy.

I had you all to myself.

There was nobody else

and no one ever felt so right

or so extreme, boy.

You cast me underneath your spell,

drew me out of my shell. 

And now my heart's in a sling.

There just ain't nothin' I can do.

Wish you weren't so dear.

Oh, I wish it wasn't you.

And if we never make love,

well, darlin', that's okay,

'cause in your heart, I know

I've got you anyway.

In my palace of pleasure,

my palace of pleasure,

once I let you inside,

I might love you forever.

In my palace of pleasure,

my palace of pleasure,

I will save you a place 

till I can make you my treasure.

I never felt so damn alone

in my bed, boy.

Tell me why it has to be so bad.

Doesn't need to be sad.

I wish I had a heart of stone

that never bled, boy.

Well, then I could simply walk away

instead of wishing I'd stayed.

So now my head's in a cloud.

Am I feelin' strong?

Should I trust in God (trust in God)

that we may never belong?

And if we never make love,

well, darlin', that's okay,

'cause in your heart, I know

I've got you anyway.

In my palace of pleasure

(palace of pleasure)

my palace of pleasure,

once I let you inside,

I might love you forever.

In my palace of pleasure

(palace of pleasure)

my palace of pleasure,

I will save you a place 

till I can make you my treasure.

In my palace of pleasure

(palace of pleasure)

my palace of pleasure,

once I let you inside,

I might love you forever.

In my palace of pleasure

(palace of pleasure)

I'll keep the fire burnin'

till you come for me.

Yes, I could love you forever.

Palace of pleasure

(palace of pleasure)

my palace of pleasure,

I will save you a place 

until you come after me.
