I’m moving away
To the far reaches of this world
For a black magic woman
Dark hair and darker eyeliner
Pale olive skin, crescent moon queen
She illuminates the shadows that fall in behind her
Her nails are long, colorful, and sharp
If she asked me nicely, I’d let her tear out my heart
The sweat dripping from our bodies as we dance beneath the flurry of lights and thumping of the bass
She takes my hand and guides me somewhere else, I’m enthralled by the devilish smile on her face
A cemetery by the sea
Haunting memories, gentle mists and a cool breeze
The salt from the Baltic’s washes ashore and collides with the smell of the moss and decay
Her eyes cast a glare on me that sends chills through my bones
A glance that turns lesser men to stone
The blood in her veins runs cold as ice
I could live under these stars, with this lady of night
She came out of no where, like an angel of truth
Pulling the shades open, and blinding my eyes
Revealing the secrets that you tried to hide
Because of her my soul felt like it was ripped into pieces
And now I’m beholden to her, for revealing that treason
I know so little about her
And I really don’t care
I want to trace the lines in her body, and take in the smell of her hair
Holding her softly and tender
As our lips connect for a moment, that we’ll always remember
The language barrier shatters as we let our bodies speak for themselves
We’ll make love until the sun crests over the fields
Tossing and turning like long lost companions intertwined
So come lay next to me, darling, I want you to be mine
