Quench Me, My Love
When it's late at night and sleep can't be found-
when the loneliness walks through to say hello,
…because I miss you, all I do is close my eyes and you are near.
Softly, you appear as I turn on that song, and memories rush back.
I am drawn to you like a magnet; I am in love with you like no other.
The gentle and sweet smell I try to remember, becomes so clear.
I am the one; you are the one.
It's so late tonight, so dark,
but beautiful with closed eyes and memories.
As you breathe new life into me, I release my defeat.
My obsolete sorrow has left and we are free inside our intimacy.
You bring me passion beyond measure and on this starry night,
we shall embrace...
me. you. just us two...
and after all we've been through.
Shower me at dawn like a dew drop on a rose nurturing her nectar.
Thirst for me at dusk as a constellation does for a shooting star.
For I am your drought in July, an Arizona heated blistering infatuation;
I need your rain so I may be quenched-
for it has always been your love…
