Generate meaning
1
How long since I've spent a whole night in a twin bed with a stranger
2
His warm arms all around me?
3
How long since I've gazed into dark eyes that melted my soul down to a place where it longs to be?
4
All of your history has little to do with your face
5
You're mainly a mystery with violins filling in space
6
You stood in the nude by the mirror and picked out a rose
7
From the bouquet in our hotel
8
And lay down beside me again and I watched the rose
9
On the pillow where it fell
10
I sank and I slept in a twilight with only one care
11
To know that when day broke and I woke that you'd still be there
12
The hours for once they passed slowly, unendingly by
13
Like a sweet breeze on a field
14
Your gentleness came down upon me and I guess I thanked you
15
When you caused me to yield
16
We spoke not a sentence and took not a footstep beyond
17
Our two days together which seemingly soon would be gone
18
Don't tell me of love everlasting and other sad dreams
19
I don't want to hear
20
Just tell me of passionate strangers who rescue each other
21
From a lifetime of cares
22
Because if love means forever, expecting nothing returned
23
Then I hope I'll be given another whole lifetime to learn
24
Because you gave to me oh so many things it makes me wonder
25
How they could belong to me
26
And I gave you only my dark eyes that melted your soul down
27
To a place where it longs to be
