Touching me again and again,
you kindle a fire in me.
Teasing me again and again,
you feed me honey.
You are a library of love,
holding a thousand books of poetry.
You have become the weapon
of an extremist of love.
Touching me again and again,
you kindle a fire in me.
Teasing me again and again,
you feed me honey.
You are a library of love,
holding a thousand books of poetry.
You have become the weapon
of an extremist of love.
If it begins...
On sensitive spots that shiver with touch,
are fingernails scratching out art?
What is the human body after all?
Just a tower wrapped in clothes.
When those clothes slip away,
a battle of passion breaks out.
The mischief will never lessen,
yet no scars will ever show.
Hands keep wandering everywhere,
wearing down the lines on our palms...
Touching me again and again,
you kindle a fire in me.
Teasing me again and again,
you feed me honey.
A private movie screening for just the two of us,
showing a festival of pure desire.
Lean close beside my ear
and run your fingers through my hair.
Even when I say that is enough,
plead and argue for more.
Without shaking things down to the roots,
this first storm will not end.
Love is completely submerged
in an intense rush of sweat.
Touching me again and again,
you kindle a fire in me.
Teasing me again and again,
you feed me honey.
You are a library of love,
holding a thousand books of poetry.
You have become the weapon
of an extremist of love.
Touching me again and again,
you kindle a fire in me.
Teasing me again and again,
you feed me honey.
