Jon Husqavan - The Life Force Lyrics

A thousand years ago
A girl I did not know
Who came to me one night
My soul alight with fright
I saw her catch the air
Red diamonds in her hair
She woke me from my sleep
And in a voice so deep
She sang

There it is
The life force
Underneath your skin
Knock knock can I come in
There it is
The life force
Howling at the moon
Tick tock I'll be there soon
Sticky sweet
The life force

A hundred years went by
In the blinking of red eyes
I learned her ancient ways
We slept away the days
Companions of the night
Together lost in flight
The scent upon the wind
Would surely call us in
And we'd sing

There it is
The life force
Underneath your skin
Knock knock can I come in
There it is
The life force
Howling at the moon
Tick tock I'll be there soon
Sticky sweet
The life force

Then our lands went to war
Just like they had before
Man's unexploded bomb
Exposed her to the sun
Through ashes on the wind
I thought I heard her sing

There it is
The life force
Underneath your skin
Knock knock can I come in
There it is
The life force
Howling at the moon
Tick tock I'll be there soon
Sticky sweet
The life force

There it is
The life force
Underneath your skin
Knock knock can I come in
There it is
The life force
Howling at the moon
Tick tock I'll be there soon
Sticky sweet
The life force
