Grace Sep 2020
What I would give to sip you all day and all night
You numb this old body and make it tingle with delight.
I'm a woman, both strong and proud
And yet I cling to you, my darling, the keeper of my shroud.

Oh shine on me, moonshine
And smile that glorious smile
Encapsulate me in your arms
And let us reminisce for a while

With you I am free
'Bout as free as these dazed eyes can see.
Oh Lord, I think you’ve got your grips in me
I love you, babe, because, to me, you are liberty

Oh but not just that—no,
don’t let me sell you short
I love you for your courage, honey
For I am the most dependent sort
