That I Could

Oh that I could breathe you in
taste the fragrance of your skin
trail my kisses down your spine
take you in and make you mine.

Oh that I could kiss you deep
passion’s flavor and so keep
rapture burning in your eyes
hear the whisper of your sighs.

Oh that I could hold you tight
keep you close during the night
tender bring you close to me
feel your longing be set free.
