I feel the hunger you feel in your touch
Burnin' my body and soul
And it's freightnin' just wantin' somebody so much
So close to losin' control
But darlin', don't make me surrender too soon
I'm so afraid of the fall
Please give it time to be tender
And pretend that 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 darlin', 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
