Weak In the Presence of Beauty
Don’t expect words to come out right
Don’t expect them to make any sense
Don’t expect me to know how to behave
Or to be confident and unafraid
“Cause I go weak, I go weak....
Weak in the presence of beauty.”
Your beauty leaves me oxygen deprived
My mind unable to think, to formulate
Anything that is logical or profound
Anything that will be able to impress
“I go weak…
Weak in the presence of beauty.”
It’s the beauty of your eyes
But more so, the beauty of your soul
The way that you’re simply perfect
Every inch of your frame divine
“Weak in the presence of beauty”…..
The way your hands reach out to me
The way your hands play in my hair
The way your lips close over mine
As you melt me with tenderness
“In the presence of beauty”….
The way you gently lay me down
The way your eyes speak to me
The way you undress my desires
Your proximity a living fire
“Presence of….. beauty”…..
The way your moist lips tug at mine
The way your tongue tastes love’s wine
The way your body rocks my world
The way you make me yield control
“B E A U T Y”……….
"I go weak,
YES, I go weak....
Weak in the presence of beauty."
Inspired by Alison Moyet's song....Weak in the Presence of Beauty! WHAT A VOICE THAT WOMAN HAS!!!!!!! One of my favorite artists.
