Overwhelmed With Loving You

Overwhelmed With Loving You

It happens every now and then
it's a little half past two.
I lay listening to your breathing
overwhelmed with loving you.

So tender is the moment
for the chance that I must take.
To gently whisper in your ear
of the love that we must make.

Once again you turn to me
and I see your desire.
As the passion in me rages
like a rapid burning fire.

My skin against your skin
my hands upon your hips.
Overwhelmed with loving you
I need to taste your lips.

Your head tilted toward heaven
I can hear you softly moan.
I've forgotten every moment
that I ever felt alone.

As we rock against each other
softly in the night.
Everything that was so wrong
is suddenly so right.

Then as we lay there together
one more night we made it through.
You and I forever
overwhelmed with loving you.
