I Want You
I want you
Fantasy's a fleeting feeling
I'm reeling for the reality of your kiss
Luscious on my lips
Ahhhh to taste
Imagination's a waste
I want you
Riveted, you stand and stare
Do I dare share
this wanton whisper?
Shall I lay it bare?
I want you
In every dream
In every waking thought
You're there
My eyes can't disguise
Too foolish to be wise
A dangerous disclosure:
my feigned indifference? Just lies!
Desire's drive won't be denied
I want you
Proximity, passion's pull
I crave
I ache
For heaven's sake
My reserve's about to break
Decorum's at stake
But...but oh...how
I
want
you
Cheeks crimson in the wake of your charisma
Your eyes lock on mine
Body weak
I can hardly speak
That look...
Could it be true?
Do you...want me too?
As you move closer to me
I feel the incendiary heat
hit me in w~a~v~e~s
In a daze
Your gaze, this craze
You lean in and whisper my name
Lay your claim
There's no shame
Who's to blame?
Passion's hard to tame
"I want you"... escapes ... ragged from your lips as they close on mine
Melting into the sublime
eternity bound in time
I feel you tilting my head back by my hair
Your lips trailing everywhere
Mine free to declare:
"Ahhhhh...
I ...want....you!"
