There are no words to describe
what I feel inside
the things you do to me
it happens every time

Seeing a picture of you
it's the perfect disguise
to hide that it's you I like
you know
what's on the inside

No one would ever believe
and a man this does not make
for who would see someone
as they are
and not just a piece of meat
long wished for
only to be licked, wetted, and eaten

He's not a man
he's already been knighted
but they forget I don't give a shh-
labels don't hide it
they don't even come close
nothing will take away
what you mean to me
and how I long to capture
your essence
your very soul

What I want sings like you
sweetly in my ear
what a pleasure it is
what packages you
it makes it all complete
as now I long for words
and even what has been said
is an insult to what you mean

You are everything
you need to be
but it seems you don't know
so easily distracted by things
put on for show

I long to be better
to capture it still
all that you are
and what you make me inside

Not nervous
I am brave
for it needs to be said

Though already taken
your presence
must be embraced
with the awe
of which it's deserving

It's no time to be bashful
it's a stranger's words
they mean nothing
but as has been said
one thing is certain
you are that thing dreamed about
through lonely nights
and summers still

Perhaps at 60
then you will see
what I've said all along
and that you're perfect still

Nothing can ever change
what you are to me
it can never be made waste
it's why I fight
it's why I will
do everything to make you
even stronger within

You can't let them change
what is already divine
I can't be allowed again
to go out of my mind

If only you could understand
just what it means
you would see
what I've wanted you to be
and exactly what I see
