Album: Heathcliff Soundtrack

BE WITH ME ALWAYS

MAY SHE WAKE IN TORMENT, NEVER TO FIND
ANY KIND OF COMFORT IN DEATH
MAY HER LIES STANIC
THAT CORRUPT EVEN NOW
BRING HER BACK TO CONFRONT ME AGAIN
THESE ARE WORDS OF HATRED, WORDS OF CONTEMPT
ONLY ONE WHO LOVED HER WOULD SAY
ONLY ONE WHO SUFFERED
AT THE HANDS AND THE HEART
OF A WOMAN WHO STOLE
BOTH HIS LIFE AND SOUL
BE WITH ME ALWAYS
POSSESS ME AND HAUNT ME
TAKE ANY FORM OR TAKE NONE
BE WITH ME ALWAYS
IN FLESH OR AS A GHOST
AND YOU'LL LEARN AS THE AGES RUN
LEARN WHAT YOUR SIN HAS DONE

WHO IS MY PROTECTOR? WHENCE COMES MY HELP?
WHO IS THERE TO CALM ME BUT SHE?
GOD SHALL BE MY WITNESS THAT I PRAY SHE WILL KNOW
NOT ONE MOMENT OF REST, IN THE COLD, COLD GROUND

BE WITH ME ALWAYS
CONSUME AND INVADE ME
TAKE ANY SHAPE OR DISGUISE
BE WITH ME ALWAYS
TO SHARE ALL MY DESPAIR
AND TO LEARN NOTHING JUSTIFIES
RECKLESS INHUMAN LIES

HERE COMES THE NIGHT, THE ABYSS ANRELENTING
CASTING ALL REASON ASIDE
ANS I SEE IN MYSELF
ALL THE THINGS I SEE IN YOU
HEAR THE SAVAGE I AM CRYING
BE WITH ME ALWAY ...

15. NIGHTMARE [A TIME FOR ABSOLUTION]
(CLIFF RICHARD/HELEN HOBSON/SARA HAGGARTY/DARRYL KNOCK/JIMMY JOHNSTON/GORDON
GILTRAP)

I HAVE A BURDEN OF PURE VENGEANCE
THAT I WAS DAMNED WITH FROM MY BIRTH
AND IT WILL THE FORCE THAT DRIVES ME
INTIL THE DAY I QUIT THIS EARTH

YOU LIVE BY TREACHERY AND VIOLENCE
AND THEY WILL CRUSH YOU IN RETURN
YOUR DESTRUCTION IS MY PLEASURE
YOUR SPITE THE FIRE IN WHICH YOU BURN

I AM THE TRUE SON OF OUR FATHER
AND I AM LORD OF WUTHERING HEIGHTS
BURN IN HELL, YOU FILTHY GYPSY
SHARE THE FATE OF PARASITES

I DID NOT LOVE YOU ISABELLA
YOU WERE THE MEANS TO OTHER ENDS
I ALWAYS KNEW OUR AILING OFFSPRING
WOULD NEVER PAY ME DIVIDENDS

I USED TO LONG FOR YOU TO KILL ME
BUT NOW I WISH YOU DEATH INSTEAD
I GAVE YOU ALL THIS WOMAN COULD DO
I WAS RAPED, ABANDONED, ALL FEELINGS DEAD

SPINELES EDGAR, FEEBLE EDGAR
CATHERINE ONLY WANTED ME

I WAS CONSTANT, I WAS TENDER
ALL THAT YOU COULD NEVER BE

THERE'S A TIME FOR ABSOLUTION
THERE'S A TIME FOR TRUE REGRET

I KNEW THE ENVY OF A FAMILY
WHICH WAS SO EASY TO DESTROY
BUT OH MY CATHY NOT SO EASY
TO BE ONE YOU COULD ENJOY

I CANNOT REST IN PEACE WITHOUT YOU
AND YOU COULD NEVER COMPREHEND
MY COLD AND ANGRY ISOLATION
I WAIT FOR YOU BROTHER, LOVER, FRIEND

DEATH IS BECKONS, SISTER, LOVER
ALL I SEE IS YOUR SWEET FACE

WHETHER MAN OR WHETHER DEVIL
STILL THE LOVE I CAN'TREPLACE

THERE'S A TIME FOR ABSOLUTION
THERE'S A TIME FOR TRUE REGRET
THERE IS A TIME TO FORGIVENESS
BUT THE TIME IS NOT HERE YET

I CURSE THE GOD OR MAN THAT MADE ME
I CURSE THE LIFE I HAD TO LEAD
I CURSE THE YEARS AHEAD WITHOUT HER
I CURSE MY HUNGER, I CURSE MY NEED
