I Want to Taste Your Lips Tonight


from the ABC set Lurve Ramblings

I need to feel your fingers running up and down my back,

to taste the hidden places, that are off the beaten track.

I need your eyes to tell me, that it really is alright;

I want to taste your lips tonight.

I want to get under your skin and wander through your mind,

to get behind that wall you’ve built and see what I can find.

I’ll lie within the shadows, which you’ve banished from the light;

I want to taste your lips tonight.

I know that she is in there, and I’m sure that she’ll come out,

if I can just convince her, my intentions are devout.

Lets start a revolution, stand together and unite;

I want to taste your lips tonight.

I know the walls are closing in, I know that you feel trapped,

while longing for the freedom, worried that you can’t adapt.

I’ll give to you, your liberty, for that is yours, by right;

I want to taste your lips tonight.

I know, that is hard to trust, I know it’s hard to give,

and it is hard to find a life, when you have never lived.

I’ll take your hand and guide your pen; new chapters we can write;

I want to taste your lips tonight.

I’ll set a pace, this is no race, but let us not waste time,

for not to take advantage of this love, would be a crime.

The start is here, the end is somewhere, for now, out of sight;

I want to taste your lips tonight.

If I have you and you want me, then, that for me is bliss,

it seems, that I’ve been waiting all my life, just for one kiss.

I never thought, that there was one, so able to incite…

I want to taste your lips tonight!
