about

With hints of Flamenco, World Music and a funky beat that you can dance to, this track is in a different category from the others on Echo. But the story would not have been complete without it, so it was included.

lyrics

NEVER BEHOLDEN

I romance your image in your absence
I make it up as I go along
Why go outside when the weather's cold and dreary
I've got these thoughts to keep me warm
Found it's best to fly your flag at half mast
These winds could turn upon a dime
Won't last forever but it's never over
Always a matter of time, time, time

Won't try to push you from that high ground
Looks to me you feel at home
Another night drinkin' until sunrise
Is another night I spend…
No, a steed like you is never broken
Though you might let me think you're mine
Can't be corralled, never beholden
He's just along for the ride, ride, ride

So you can go ahead and feed on this body
Play your games with this precious mind
Ain't nothin' else on the table
'Cause this heart, this heart is……

Pero, el fuego tuyo cuanto me enciende
Tu pasión no tiene igual
Cuando tocas como quien respira
Me lleva a lo primordial

Entonces puedes consumirme físicamente
Juega tus juegos con mi preciosa mente
Veras que hay algo ausente
Porque mi corazón…. no se vende

So you can burn my lips with searing kisses
Sting my eyes with that beguiling smile
There ain't nothin' else for the takin'
'Cause this heart, this heart
Go ahead and feed on this body
You can play your games with this precious mind
Ain't nothin' else for sale here 'cause this heart, this heart……
is…. mine
