Baby, Do You Want Me?

Baby, if you want me, you gotta let it show
Baby, if you need me, Gotta let me know
I'll be your lover
Hold you close
Like no other
If you just let it go, let it go
Baby, if you want me, you gotta let it show
Baby, if you need me, You gotta let me know
I don't want to own you
Hold me close
Let me love you
We'll just take it slow, take it slow
Don't leave me to wonder
My thoughts will pull me under
I'll assume you don't care
And one day, you won't find me...anywhere
I can't let you own me
Hold me close
And just love me
Or baby, let me go, let me go
Baby, do you want me?
If you do, let it show
Baby, do you need me?
Gotta let me know, let me know, let me know

Come in Like a Lion
02:48
|

I was about to check out
You said baby, please stay
You came in like a lion
Like a stormy March day
I was about to walk out
About to call it a day
But you came in like a lion
And you led me astray
Don't get too close to the fire
Flames entice but they burn
I got too close to the fire
When will I learn?
I'm about to give up
And I really shouldn't stay
But you came in like a lion
Now I can't walk away
I'm about to escape
To pull back from the flame
But you come in like a lion
And you're calling' my name
Don't get too close to the fire
Flames entice but they burn
I'm too close to the fire
Guess I'll never learn
I'm about to check out
But if you ask me to stay
If you come in like a lion
Like a stormy March day
I'll stay
I'll stay
I'll stay
I'll stay
If you ask me, I'll stay

Dreams of drumming in Peru
Painting in Monet's garden
Sleeping under a bright full moon
The stars her guide 'til mornin'
The dreams so real
Their pull so strong
She woke each day
Heard their song
But she was bound by strings
To familiar things
Though this was the life she chose
She felt a new life begin
Swimming naked in the ocean
Salt and sand on her skin
The dreams so real
Their pull so strong
She woke each day
Heard their song
Taunting her to leave
These familiar things
What's holding her here?
And which pull is greater?
The wanderlust or the fear of leaving familiar things?
She longed to leave it all behind
No destination in mind
Just anywhere far from familiar things
The dreams so real
Their pull so strong
She woke one day
To hear their song
She said
Come on baby
Gather your things
Come drum with me in Peru
Come paint in Monet's garden
We'll sleep together under the moon
And let the stars guide us 'til mornin'
The gypsy danced in the firelight
Free from the chains
Her wild heart took flight
No longer a prisoner of familiar things
She said
Come on baby
Gather your things
Come drum with me in Peru
Come paint in Monet's garden
We'll sleep together under the moon
And let the stars guise us 'til mornin' (x2)

I Followed
02:14
|
|||
That night down by the stream
The only light a moon beam
That I followed, that I followed
A glimpse of love I did spy
A taste of you I did try
And I followed, and I followed
There I fell into your eyes
Hearing nothing but your sighs
And I followed, and I followed
Down by the water's edge, there I followed you
I climbed up on the ledge, where I followed you
The moon light reflect upon you face
Wrapped in your love embrace
And I knew, I loved you
And I followed, and I followed

Now I Know
02:29
|

You once said, our love's forever
Now I know that you knew better
And I'm alone
You are gone
You once said, you loved me only
Now I know what it is to be lonely
And I'm alone
You're not home
You once said, you'd never make me cry
Now I know that too was a lie
Now I'm alone
You're not coming home
And I'm alone
You're never coming home

I woke from a dream
Where I bathed in a pool
Of my own tears
Soaked in blood
From the open wounds
Of my broken heart
Reflection me in your soulless eyes
Is this where love goes when it dies?
Oh when it dies, when it dies
Spoke in whispers
Calling out your name
Bu ton answer came
Where do I trun
When there is no light
And I am blind?
Reflection of me in your soulless eyes
Is this where love goes when it dies?
When it dies, when it dies
I hope you find what you're lookin' for
Cause I can't take this anymore
Reflection of me in your soulless eyes
Is this where love goes when it dies?

On My Mind
03:42
|
|||
In the quiet hours, while others sleep
I long for you
And the longing's deep
In the morning hours, as the sun comes up
You're on my mind
Baby, all the time
I remember holding you close
In the quiet moments
I miss you most, I miss you most
Lost together under the stars
In your arms
I miss being in your arms
The warmth of your touch
The fire in your eyes
You're on my mind
Baby, all the time
I remember holding you close
In these moments
I miss you most, I miss you most
