Please make love with me after Dark
A place I can hide beneath my heart
And hide my deepest fears
In the deep of the night.

Can we find reprieve in a warm embrace
Because looking at such a beautiful face
Might be too much for me tonight
My eyes hurt.

Let's see if we can find that passion
And give it one more try
if it doesn't work tomorrow
Then that's another day to cry
I'm so very tired.

So turn the lights off
come to bed with me
In the darkness...
we still can see...
Each other
Enough.

A place that we can love and rest
To lay there in our lover's nest
We passed another daily test
So I'll make tonight my last request

To come to bed with me and lay
I've said all that I mean to say

Please be...
with me...
for now...

And for tonight... that would be enough
you & I will be...
Enough.
