Stage Setting Specials - Beginning – Centre Stage - Finishing – wherever they end up Leading: Nick Backing: Tagi & Moses 1st lines of the lyrics: Lovely traces. I can sense You in everything The way that You move me takes me far away I seek no escape, I'm dreaming through Your eyes I am wandering through Your mind I'm overtaken by the way that You deliver me I'm transcended, there's no place I'd rather be than here in Heaven Without You I'm incomplete, it's hopeless last lines of the lyrics (how the song ends) You consume me, You consume me Burning flame, through my veins You consume me moving through me Anytime, anyplace You invade my space You consume me [oh, you know that I surrender] I am consumed, I'm consumed with You There's no other way I can fly It's You and I, You and I
