.61. Pirates of My Heart

59 11 111
                                    

Every heart has four chambers
Chambers filled with secrets
Darling, steal those from my heart today
Come, be my pirate

Come, rule these seas of mine
Find the buried treasure
Every time you lay your anchor
You increase my heart's pressure

Searching those isolated seas,
I've got really very tired
Will I really get a hidden treasure
That will satisfy my desire?

What is it you desire, my queen
You just make a wish
To find that smile of yours
I'll order every fish

Trying to be sweet, are you?
But I'm the queen of sea
Whatever I wish, I can get
Whether inside or outside the sea

Then why can't you find those secrets
That are buried inside my heart?
Why can't you open the chambers
Those chambers of my heart?

I can open the door to your heart
But what is really stored inside?
Will it really be worthy of stealing
Or will I be wasting my precious time?

In there lies a chest full of love
Full of affection, smiles and care
For all the time you spend behind it
I think the compensation is fair

Being the queen of sea,
Gems and jewels is what I have plenty
But love, care and affection,
Of these, my heart is just empty

Then what's holding you back?
Ms. Queen of the Sea
The heart is waiting to be unlocked
Why don't you go ahead and see?

Love and care is the true treasure,
Treasure for which I always longed
I'd love to unlock the chamber of your heart
If you promise to always move along

No, my queen, no promises made
We all know how they end
Instead, today I take an oath
To be forever, your lover and friend.

A friend and a lover
Oh, you give me such pleasure
Hidden from me it was always,
But now, this bond I'll always treasure!
