chest beating, heart racing
my eyes graze your face
for seconds only, then pull down
red fills my cheeks,
staring at the ground
this feeling can't be real
i've never felt a feeling so
it's not what i'm used to feel
but the way your eyes fix onto mine
oh! the joy of being free
the joy of you loving me
is everything i'll ever need

and in my dreams,
chills roll down my back
each time you smile back
and though it isn't much
may i stay a while, perhaps?
you are my home, you are my safety
my everything i'll ever need

and in my dreams,
the warmth of your hand
keeps me breathing
the soft touch of your fingertips
resting upon my hips
helps me love myself again

your voice, so soft, so timid
is music to my ears
it fills me with butterflies
to hear your words
they sound like love songs

i imagine your lips, so sweet
sweeter than brown sugar and peach
softer than down and cotton
i long to feel them on my own

i'm fantasizing in my dreams
the way you'll feel right next to me
and honestly you're too good to be true
i absolutely can't resist you
