Soul Asylum - The Cult

Who would break a butterfly on a wheel?

Not me, my precious child

Sweet angel, wrap me in your velvet cloak, my dear

Love’s a sweet warm goddess I invited here

So many times I call your name, ooh baby, baby, please

So many times I call your name, ooh yeah

Before the night is through

Grant me one last wish

Sweet soul asylum, yeah

An everlasting kiss

Who would crush this woman underfoot?

Ooh, not me, my chosen one

(My chosen one)

Sweet angel, wrap me in your velvet cloak, my dear

Love’s a sweet warm goddess I invited here

So many times I call your name, oh please, baby, yeah

So many times I call your name

Before the night is through

Grant me one last wish

Sweet soul asylum, yeah

An everlasting kiss

Oh, ooh baby, yeah, yeah, yeah

Oh oh oh

Takes me far away

So many times I call your name, oh baby, baby, please

So many times I call your name

(Before the night is through)

Before the night is through

(Grant me one last wish)

Oh, grant me one last wish

Sweet soul asylum, yeah

An everlasting kiss

(Before the night is through)

(Grant me one last wish)

Sweet soul asylum, yeah

An everlasting kiss

Sweet soul asylum, yeah

Oh, sweet soul asylum

Sweet soul, yeah

Sweet soul asylum, oh
