As you lean in closer
And press your lips to mine
With the heat intensifying your gravity
I solicit myself in your touch
As your love making mystifies my mind
You've got to admit, you paint a pretty picture
No one would ever suspect, you’re so adept at the art
As I hear your lonely lover sigh
You hide behind aesthetic eyes
We want it all and we want it fast
No time to think, no time to ask
But you know that road that we're on
Doesn’t always lead to happiness
You taught me the ways of desire
And now it’s burning out of control
I always thought I'd be prepared
But your love just caught me unaware
You say the words and I believe
Falling so hard, I fall so deep
Love can't hide, though it tries
Hearts catching fire, now so has mine
Here's My Heart, no longer unseen
Behind perfume lies
A paramour or less, is never really sure
Exactly what to listen for
In secrecy to the things they never say
The object of desire is seldom ever clear
I reach for as I lay wide awake
In your crimes of passion
And whisper, Here is my heart
