Come to me quietly in the night

Lay your body next to mine and
Let us wrap ourselves together
In a blaze so magnificent
It defies belief

Love me completely with your mind
So that I may know this ecstasy
Is shared only with me

Let me bring you into my world
Where you are the only reason
For my existence and the only source
Of my satisfaction

I will love you totally
And should I not know how
Grant me the freedom and knowledge
To explore those regions
My body is thirsty for

Let our love roar as the waves
Attack the shore in
Thrusting, rhythmic movements
And when our love is fulfilled
May we calm the seas of the Earth
With vibrations of liquid pleasure
