Praise the Lord

Can you love too much... one step towards the middle, one step towards the edge. My arms come around your hips and i want to take you, just this once so we can remember what it was like when we were desperate enough to give in, inside and outside as long as its side by side.

Hummingbirds flitter by and say "la la la" - it sounds like a soul song and it takes you back to the doo wop and the bee bop... the days when i could carry your books back from school right up to your doorstep and your mother would yell me off your front stoop. I would come back once the moon set and throw pebbles at your window waiting for venus to kiss your lips and you to say good evening.

hand in hand
flowers by your bedside
diary under your mattress
you sing in the mirror
about me
and what it will be like

stay with me tonight, just for a lil while, ill touch you tenderly and we will remember what it was like our first time, nervous gestures, holding my breath when we are close just in case its not pleasant, your fingertips in my mouth resting on my teeth, biting your neck just so softly. we wont fuss, we wont cry, its all we need. the first time wasnt perfect but thats why we keep working at it, we want to get it right so we can do it again and again.

everytime is the last time, its on our mind and we practice it again and again. our love should be a motown song sung by marvin gaye and tammy terrell. ill be your preacher and you will pray, on your knees with your hands together, speaking in tongues and blessing oh lord,

oh lord
oh lord
oh lord

pray for forgiveness, pray for mercy, cuz it has cum
over and over again, no need to stay on your knees because soon you will need to be on your back, laying down and letting jesus becum you, cross your hand over your chest, up down, left right, once again just to be sure

when im done with you, you will know heaven
