                                              I want to take it slow
If it makes us stronger,
I want us to stay in love,
And keep feeling electric. 
I don’t want to fall down
And lose this urgent burning.
                          You created a fire, burning
Deep inside my heart, slow
Roasting me way down
In my chest. It’s stronger
Than I’ve ever felt; electric
Doesn’t describe our love.
                          What to relate my love
For you to... like ice, burning
My skin but cooling, electric.
It isn’t fast, but lasting. Slow
Down the end, make it stronger
And please don’t let me down.

                          Every love I’ve had went down,
So I refuse to let this love
Sink to that place, I’m stronger
Than that, I’m burning
Inside to take this slow,
I never want to lose this electric 
                          Feeling. Make this electric 
Energy grow inside, deep down
And let it fester. Move slow
And keep me on my toes, love.
You’ll always be burning
And yearning for stronger.
                          More potency, it’s stronger
But yielding, unlike the electric
Buzz of my past loves, burning
But not hurting me, up or down
I’ll always follow this love.
To the ends of the earth, slow.
                          In my strong arms, we fall down,
To this electric, ecstatic love
A burning pool of love, move slow.
