Treat me gently for I am fragile,
vulnerable and nervous too
It's been a while since I've been here
and now here I am with you

                                        I'm so very glad you said that
                                        for I too am full of nerves
                                        what if he doesn't like my body
                                        what if he doesn't like my curves

My stomach's full of butterflies
my mouth and throat are dry
more anxious than ever before
a little scared a little shy

                                        My head is full of doubts
                                        doubts I think you'll have of me
                                        I want so much for this to happen
                                        I'm scared you won't like what you see

But I want so much to be with you
for you the be one
to feel myself within your arms
I pray not to come undone

                                        I want to feel your hands upon me
                                        I want to linger in your kiss
                                        I want to give you everything I am
                                        and bask within its bliss

So now we both know that were frightened
and now that we both understand
lets turn the lights down just a little
come over here and take my hand
The verses alternate here between what he said and what she said
