made by coconut
It wasn't raining yet
But it was definitely a little misty on
That warm November night
And my heart was pounding
My inner voice resounding
Begging me to turn away
But I just had to see your face
To feel alive
And then you casually walked in the room
And I was twisted in the web
Of my desire for you (And I was twisted)
My apprehension blew away
I only wanted you
To taste my sadness
As you kissed me in the dark
Everytime I feel the need
I envision you caressing me
And go back in time
To relieve the splendor of you and I
On the rooftop that rainy night
And so we finished the Moet and
I started feeling liberated
And I surrendered as you took me
In your arms
I was so caught up in the moment
I couldn't bear to let you go yet
So I threw caution to the wind
And started listening to my longing heart
And then you softly pressed your lips to mine
And feelings surfaced I'd suppressed
For such a long time (And I was lifted)
And for a while I forgot
The sorrow and the pain
And melted with you as we stood
There in the rain
Bridge:
Last night I dreamed that I
Whispered the words I love you
And touched you so very
Subtly as we were kissing goodbye
(Pretty baby - How I'm missing you)
Everytime I feel the need (Last night I had the strangest dream...)
I envision you caressing me (It was actually quite symbolic)
And go back in time (As I whispered...That I loved you)
To relieve the splendor of you and I (...very subtly) |
