Starlight

Come, let me hold you, 
let me touch you, let me show you love, 
Come, let me free you, 
Let me see you, let me pull the strings undone. 

We only have tonight, 
To shine in the starlight, 
We only have this night, 
Tomorrow we will disappear. 

So come, bare your skin, 
Bare your soul to me, 
Let us start again, 
So come, bare your heart, 
Let me dive in deep, 
Let me tear down your walls.

We only have tonight, 
To make love in the starlight, 
We only have this night, 
Tomorrow we will fade away. 

I just want to hold you, to touch you,
To show you how to make sweet love,
I just want to kiss you, to see you, 
To feel you like no one has ever done,
You feel like home to me, 
A place that I have never been,
You feel like the secret recipe,
To a happiness I have never had. 

We only have tonight, 
To be here together in the starlight, 
We only have this night, 
Tomorrow we will fade away. 

So come, let me love you, 
Let me touch you, let me come undone.

So lovely tender and desperately true, that tomorrow is uncertain, and that we change forever after making love for the first time. This is a very romantic and soulful lyrical poem, it has me singing Jay...J.A.B.
