This is a great song about obsession, the story goes that this song was actually a letter she received from a man who was stalking her. Creepy, right?

Possession - Sarah McLachlan
Listen as the wind blows
from across the great divide
voices trapped in yearning
memories trapped in time
The night is my companion
and solitude my guide
would I spend forever here
and not be satisfied
And I would be the one to hold you down
kiss you so hard I'll take your breath away
and after I'd wipe away the tears
just close your eyes dear
Through this world I've stumbled
so many times betrayed
trying to find an honest word
to find the truth enslaved
Oh you speak to me in riddles and
you speak to me in rhymes
my body aches to breathe your breath
you words keep me alive
And I would be the one to hold you down...
Into this night I wander
it's morning that I dread
another day of knowing of
the path I fear to tread
Oh into the sea of waking dreams
I follow without pride
nothing stands between us here
and I won't be denied
And I would be the one to hold you down...
