The Fly Swatter Lady

        I am not the same as I was before
        Since the day your presence found my door
        Now the time that I steal is the time that I need
        When darkness descends is when vampires feed
        And when feeding on you, I feel so alive
        It's your love not your blood that I need to survive

        You are part of my body and part of my soul
        Only when you are with me do I feel truly whole
        My thoughts and my dreams consist of nothing but you
        You are an extension of me now in all that I do
        I can't live without you, seems I just float around
        Only when you are here can I touch solid ground

        Your voice rings in my mind, I replay every word
        I never really knew love until your voice was first heard
        I need you so much my chest aches every day
        There's only one thing I know to make the hurt go away
        I need to be with you, to lay by your side
        It's the laws of love by which I need to abide
