This is a SCARY song.
This is a STALKER song, it's all in the first person, and it's a stalker justifying his obsession with a woman with a fantasy that "a thousand lifetimes ago" they vowed their love for each other.
You leave the light on at your door
You cross your heart
Across the bedroom floor
And through the window
To your world
You can feel me there
And you know I'm waiting
MEANING - he is stalking her, and like a cat playing with a mouse, he wants to feel that she is aware of him
'Cause you belong to me
I will be your shadow
When you walk away
I will follow you
Until your dying day
MEANING - this stalker feels 100% justified in wanting her, in fact he says she BELONGS to him, until HER dying day. (not THEIR death, only hers!)
A thousand lifetimes long ago
We made a promise
We would not let go
And so I come for you tonight
And we live again
Before we lose each other
MEANING - the stalker justifies his lust with a fantasy that he knew his victim in previous lives
I won't be denied no
MEANING - it's not love reunited across the centuries, it's all about the stalker, here and now, lusting after his victim. "I WON'T BE DENIED!"
At no point in this song is it a partnership, it is all about what HE (the stalker) wants, desires, obsesses over ...
Scary song about the workings of a stalker's mind!
