If I took the time to tell you I loved you,
If I laid you back on the cool sheets tonight,
Would you take the time to lead me inside you,
Lying in our breath, could we make things right?
If I stole the stars to give you Centauri,
If I laid them back in your name ‘cross the sky,
Would you understand the truth that was written,
Take me in your arms …
With such magic you’d …
Fly with me through the heart of the night
Touch the moon, and I’ll kiss your sky
Only for you, would you just turn out the lights?
If I washed you face and your body so fragrant,
If I tasted sweet, every corner of you,
Would you arch your back and bring me in tightly,
Twisting ‘neath the sheets would you whisper … “I do”.
If I looked across to you, close and dreaming,
If I brushed your hair in the soft morning light,
Would you smile when you woke to remember,
Lying next to me …
that you just make things …
Right for me in the heart of the night
Touch the moon, and I’ll kiss your sky
Only for you, would you just turn out the light?
