I want you alone, So the only thing between us is heavy breathing. I want no pretenses, no fairy tale, Just a warm night and cool laughter, easy glances. I want you anxious and curious, Unsure and willing to follow where I lead. I want that grin, that crooked devil To provoke and fight me, then tease and soothe with just your words. I want to tip the glass And forget myself, please, just for a minute. I want to push your beautiful mind to edge, Then show you why I’m more than you’ve imagined I want to barely touch your skin But feel the flame left in my finger’s place. I want to watch your eyes roll back, Then wait for you to seek revenge. I want to feel control snap and hunger bite, As we’re taken to the edge, then left hanging. I want to unravel your layers until I can run my fingers through your soul, Then lace it with my own and watch them dance on sunlight. I want to lay there and feel your stare burn into me, Let the heat build until we’ve caught fire. I want to see it in your eyes, Regret and passion, as if they were the same. I want us to pretend this was an accident, Blame it on too much wine and too much time. I want us to leave this night alone And run home to where we belong. I want us to need each other, But know it’s nothing more than mistakes. I need us to end this, But I’ll never want that.

I want you alone, So the only thing between us is heavy breathing. I want no pretenses, no fairy tale, Just a warm night and cool laughter, easy glances. I want you anxious and curious, Unsure and willing to follow where I lead. I want that grin, that crooked devil To provoke and fight me, then tease and soothe with just your words. I want to tip the glass And forget myself, please, just for a minute. I want to push your beautiful mind to edge, Then show you why I’m more than you’ve imagined I want to barely touch your skin But feel the flame left in my finger’s place. I want to watch your eyes roll back, Then wait for you to seek revenge. I want to feel control snap and hunger bite, As we’re taken to the edge, then left hanging. I want to unravel your layers until I can run my fingers through your soul, Then lace it with my own and watch them dance on sunlight. I want to lay there and feel your stare burn into me, Let the heat build until we’ve caught fire. I want to see it in your eyes, Regret and passion, as if they were the same. I want us to pretend this was an accident, Blame it on too much wine and too much time. I want us to leave this night alone And run home to where we belong. I want us to need each other, But know it’s nothing more than mistakes. I need us to end this, But I’ll never want that.
