Animal Skin
I see in you an animal traceThat's quick in your blood and deep in your face,Mine has been tamed; I'm shamed to pretendWhen I'm this close to your animal skinI remember when love was something I cravedBut I settled for less and the comfort it gave,For living is hard when real love beginsAnd it leaves heavy lines on your animal skinOh, let your arms make a deep night for meEnclosing my world so I cannot see,I'll rise with your breath and fall back againCause you bring me close to my animal skinYou bring me back to where I'd once beenWhen I'm this close to your animal skin
