Lyrics

I feel the hunger, you feel in your touch
Burning my body and soul
And it’s frightenin' just wantin' somebody so much
So close to losing control
But darling don’t make me surrender too soon
I’m so afraid of the fall
Please give it time to be tender
And pretend it won’t hurt at all
Slowly be gentle each step of the way
I’ve never been loved before
Let me believe, you won’t turn away
After I’ve opened the door
But darling don’t make me surrender too soon
I’m so afraid of the fall
Please give it time to be tender
And pretend it won’t hurt at all
Please give it time to be tender
And pretend it won’t hurt at all
