Am             G
I wait in the darkness
  F              G
Frozen winds surround my face
In the cover of darkness
I can make believe; it's you
I feel you like the rain,
I feel you like a storm cloud
Building in my heart
I wonder if you know the pain,
to want the one thing that you
Haven't got

Chorus:
         Am           G
Just a twist in time, you could be mine
        F                G
Just a sip of wine, and you could be mine
        Am          G F G
Just a kiss divine (Ooh)

A hand brushes by my love
A smile fuels a steel inferno
You don't have to die to leave my world
Stand still and you've departed
It seems I'm not on your mind
And I'm just wasting my time
I'm just a fool to believe
In the death of the night,
can you feel me inside?
I wish that you could conceive

Chorus:
Just a twist in time, and you could be mine
Just a sip of wine, and you could be mine
Just a kiss divine, and you could be mine, oh

Am                         C
Won't you leave me in the darkness?
                Dm
Take away the pride, all
                    E
the dignity that's burning inside

Can't you see I'm standing naked?
I'll bear all the crosses and
the crucifixes you can provide
If you could decide

Chorus:
Just a twist in time
Just a sip of wine
Just a kiss divine
Just a twist in time, and you could be mine
Just a sip of wine, and you could be mine
Just a kiss divine, and you could be mine
Just a twist in time, and you could be mine
Just a sip of wine, and you could be mine
Just a kiss divine
Just a twist in time, and you could be mine
Just a sip of wine, you could be mine
Just a kiss divine, no, no
Just a twist in time
