Lyrics

Starving for your touch, are my appetites too much?
Oh but how you tease them
Looking in your eyes, you brush my hair aside
It curls ‘round your finger
Quiet my heart, quiet that spark
But I wish your hand would linger
Tell myself that you feel the way I do
Lord just let me be her

Keep my words safe inside this aching tenderness I hide
You can’t or won’t or shouldn’t care, I tell myself that I don’t care
I’ll just take any sweetness you can spare
I’ll take any sweetness you can spare

Lying next to you, I snuck in like a fool
to watch you while you’re breathing
tell myself that you, feel the way I do
why am I always leaving?

I am all too aware, your hand in mine’s a brief affair
I’m succumbing all the while to the siren’s song of denial
I’ll just take any sweetness you can spare
I’ll take any sweetness you can spare

Keep my words safe inside this aching tenderness I hide
You can’t or won’t or shouldn’t care, I tell myself that I don’t care
I’ll just take any sweetness you can spare
I’ll take any sweetness you can spare

Dreaming of the day, you wake me up to say
My beauty overthrew ya. I tell myself to pray, tell myself today
You’re turning ‘round my corner
Begging for my touch, loving me too much
It’s just around the corner…
