Desireless

We had music for dinner
Heady and sweet
To wash the bitterness of words from our lips
My love for you is irreversible
And strong like song

In your slow voice, I heard suggestion
In your reaches I felt perfection
I will linger on
Inside your wordless poetry of melody

Daddy, I'm a bad girl
Give it to me straight
Don't tell me life is honey
When you and I know it ain't

I couldn't be your angel
I had to steal a kiss
And if you could be here now
I wouldn't be desireless

If this night could find tomorrow
And I gave words to my sorrow
I'd find solace in the prospect of belief
But I couldn't spare the roses
When I drowned the weeds
And the nature of your virtue is my grief

Your game was so enticing
That I could not resist
Your promise so inviting
Playing out upon your lips

I couldn't be your angel
I had to steal a kiss
And if you could be here now
I wouldn't be desireless

If each twilight's yours alone
And your lover feels like home
You will know the blessing you have been to me

Your game was so exiting
I had to take the risk
You radiate so blinding
My pulse froze in my wrists

I couldn't be your angel
I had to steal a kiss
And if you could be here now
I wouldn't be desireless

I couldn't be your angel
And if you could be here now
I wouldn't be desireless

I couldn't be your angel, ohhh
And if you could be here now
I wouldn't be desireless

Da da da, da da, da da da
Oh, I wouldn't be desireless...
