Don't ever let me take you for granted
You've got your finger on the pulse of my soul
Let me place a kiss in the small of your back
Love and protect you from the evils of this world

Baby don't ever leave me stranded
Whoever said that the streets were paved with gold
We'll I'm afraid that we're all sadly mistaken
There's nothing here till we have someone to hold

I love you with all the joy of living
Till the lights go down in New York City
It's a special love affair
And there's magic in the air

You gotta shake me down
Bring me 'round to my senses
Till I'm lost and found
And you surround me with your senses

If love wasn't here would we reinvent it?
Oh take me down to the very root of my soul
Oh baby say it as if you really mean it
And feel the passion
Work it's way up through your skin

I love you with all the joy of living
Till the lights go down in New York City
It's a special love affair
And there's magic in the air

You gotta shake me down
Bring me 'round to my senses
Till I'm lost and found
And you surround me with your senses

Let me take you by the hand
And lead you to a safe place in this world

Once upon a time,
Science opened up the door.
We would feed the hungry fields,
'til they couldn't eat no more.
But the potions that we made,
Touched the creatures down below.
And they grow up in a way
That we'd never seen before.

Supernature, supernature
Supernature, supernature

They were angry with the man,
'cause she changed their way of life.
And they take their sweet revenge,
As they trample through the night.
For hundred miles or more,
You could hear the people cry.
But there is nothing you can do,
Even God is on their side.

Supernature, supernature
Supernature, supernature

Gods will break the ice, and throw it in the air
The creatures will decide who goes where

How can I explain?
Things are different today,
Darkness all around, no one makes a sound.
Such a sad affair, no one seems to care.

Supernature, supernature
Supernature, supernature

Better watch out, there's no way to stop it now!
You can't escape, it's too late!
Look what you've done,
There's no place that you can run
The monsters made, we must pay
Maybe nature has a plan,
To control the ways of man.
He must start from scratch again,
Many battles must he win.
'Til he earns his place on earth,
Like the other creatures do.
Will there be a happy end?
Now that all depends on you!
