Remembering you is something I hate
It's like I get a bad taste in my mouth
And it's not from the cigarettes
But from your body's shadow
As you walked into the room
We stared at each other
For what seemed like minutes
Your body language said it all
The way you bit your lip
As we looked in each other's eyes
I felt sparks fly between us
I am no science genius
But I know chemistry when I see it
I swear it was more than intense lust
More like the after effects of alcohol intoxication
A feeling that made your throat warm
As well as cold because you know it's only temporary
A love like could never last
But it could
For a night

I am no saint or sinner
But I would give you a night to remember
Just to leave a mark on your heart
So you'd remember me years from now
Even if we never see each other again
And if we ever cross paths once more
I'd know if this was love or not
Or just a passionate impulse
For affection from his tense
yet gentle embrace
Just to feel loved
Even if it only lasts
For a night
