Sleeping Raw Again
It's another summer night that is quite sultry.
There is no air conditioning without electricity.
After the storm, the electric company has yet to restore
the power we had just two nights before.
It's dark in the bedroom with complete privacy.
I have nothing on, but nobody can see.
Here in this bed, there is only you and me.
From now until we see the first light of day,
let's just sleep here together the natural way.
