Crush

Crush

White sheets, I can't believe I'm still asleep, still beneath
He's come to rest, head and heart, he's on my chest, he falls so hard
I'm crushed-it's what I asked for: some kind of weight to hold me down
I'm lost-I'm in his mouth, cradled by his sounds�

Soft light, a perfect dawn, a moment held a moment gone
And all day this will be my secret place where I can taste him
Long gone, it's what I asked for: some kind of space to float around and
Eyes wide, I am awake now, cursed by the freedom that I've found

I'll come when you least expect it,
Close your eyes you won't regret this
Love comes when you least expect it�.

Warm night, a silent breeze, and I'm up against the wall
Strong hands and hips to hold me, still I'm afraid that I will fall
I'm crushed-it's what I asked for: some kind of weight to hold me down
Eyes wide, I am awake now, cursed by the freedom that I've found
