Lover
Lover, why do you wake me at 3 am?
Is it to breathe on my neck, or to perhaps make sweet love?
You do tease me again!
Of course, for no amount of persuasion or whispering in my ear
will let you any closer.....
Please do ask, I need to know you have me in your heart.
Truly I would have you, it is not me who holds us apart.
It is time and distance that won't let us near.
Oh sweet, sweet lover, tell me again, why do you wake me at 3am?
