1st verse
from the moment that we caressed, by love possessed was i
from the moment we kissed,all my plans to resist were replaced by a sigh
2nd verse
your lips were warm on mine,and tender was your touch
i tried so not to care, then suddenly i cared too much
all my fears seem to come to rest, by love possessed was i
when your arms held me tight, could i question the night,could i ask myself why
i only know, i needed you so,and whether the end,be high, or low, in the valley, or somewhere atop the crest
by love possessed, by love possessed, by love possessed---am i---by love possessed am i
