We Are Alchemists Songtext
von Darren Hayes

Do what you want with me
You know I can′t refuse
Replace the scars in me
With your emotional tattoos

I was never consciously looking for love
The universe conspired in the absence of
Maybe I'm an alchemist and you are a dove
Taking all the hurt and turning pain into love

I never meant to seek you out
I never meant to call you forth
But in my mind, I was searching, yeah
Behind enemy lines
Behind a curtain, yeah

We can dance if you want to
We can try to forget
We can touch if you need to
It might help with regret


And we can kiss if you want to (want to)
Turn our sadness to sex
We can dance if you want to
We are alchemists

Do what you want with me
In the silence, I′ll let go
Be who you want with me
I'll make a house with a damaged home

Stumbling around in a chamber of light
A thousand tiny mirrors and a laser messiah
Desire's all around but it′s an open secret
Rolling in the ground, you know we both reek of it

I never meant to give you up (feel alone, I feel alone, I feel alone)
(I′m just a lonely pilgrim)
I never meant to watch you fall (all alone, oh, I'm so alone, just a bunch of bones
(I′m just a lonely pilgrim)
And in my mind (I wasn't consciously looking for love)
I went searching (I was searching for myself)
And behind enemy lines (behind enemy lines, behind)
Behind the curtain, yeah


And we can dance if you want to (if you want to)
We can try to forget
We can touch if you need to (if you need to)
It might help with regret (when everything′s over)

And we can kiss if you want to (if you want to)
Turn our sadness to sex (when everything's over would you)
We can dance if you want to (if you want to)
We are alchemists

Ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh, whoa

I feel alone, oh, I feel alone
A bunch of broken bones
Put me back together, baby, with alchemy
One part you, one me
We′re making gold from gold
It's deep magic, baby, yeah-yeah, ooh

We can dance if you want to (if you want to)
We can try to forget (when everything's over would you)
We can touch if you need to (if you need to)
It might help with regret (when everything′s over)

And we can kiss if you want to (if you want to)
Turn our sadness to sex (when everything′s over would you)
We can dance if you want to (if you want to)
We are alchemists

When everything's over, would you dance for us?
When everything′s over, would you dance for us?
When everything's over, would you dance for us?
When everything′s over, would you dance for us?
When everything's over
