The wine is better in your mouth
_____
"I love you" is more tender in your voice
_____
The night on your body is shorter
I'm getting sick with love
I wish I could walk through your hair
_____
I wish I could spend the night on your skin
_____
To think that it was all a dream
_____
Then discover you again
_____
And love you the way that I would
_____
Like a man to a woman
To have you as something mine
And not be able to believe it
So mine, mine, mine, mine
_____
That you're part of my skin
_____
I wish I could drink from your chest
My fingers searching for trails
To reach the end of your being
_____
To dance the waltz of the waves
_____
To melt with you in the shadows
_____
And make you a love poem
And love you the way that I would
_____
Like a man to a woman
To have you as something mine
And not be able to believe it
So mine, mine, mine, mine
_____
That you're part of my skin
