I am captivated...
Seeing you, I fell under your spell
Today, I gave myself completely to you
When your generous hands wrap around this slender waist,
What sweet pleasure it brings as they entwine!
I am captivated...
Seeing you, I fell under your spell
Today, I gave myself completely to you
As your sparkling eyes recite a young woman's poem,
What sweet pleasure it brings as you keep reciting!
Wondering where and what kind of...
Aha!
...pleasures will arise, as the heart flutters with excitement,
"Not over there!" (Aha!)
"Right here!" (Oh-ho!)
As something calls out, beckoning us to come
Wondering where and what kind of...
...pleasures will arise, as the heart flutters with excitement,
Not over there, but right here,
As something calls out, beckoning us to come
As you take and I give,
And once we have shared and exchanged,
Let whatever follows next take place!
I am captivated...
Seeing you, I fell under your spell
Today, I gave myself completely to you
As your sparkling eyes recite a young woman's poem,
What sweet pleasure it brings as you keep reciting!
"Count them!" (Aha!)
"Gather them in your hands!" (Oh-ho-ho!)
Won't the bowl of my cheeks overflow?
"Hold me close!" (Mmm...)
"Press tight against me!" (Mmmm...)
So that not even the breeze can slip between us
Count them and gather them in your hands,
Without letting the bowl of the cheeks spill over,
Hold me close and press tight against me,
So that not even the breeze can slip between us,
Just like upon a weaving loom,
Intertwined like strands of thread!
Seeing you, I fell under your spell
Today, I gave myself completely to you
When your generous hands wrap around this slender waist,
What sweet pleasure it brings as they entwine!
