Lover

When you held your hand to my heart, Dear, you did something grand to my heart, And we played the scene to perfection, Through we didn't have time to rehearse Since you took control of my life You have come the whole of my life When you are away it's awful And when you with me it's worse Lover, when I'm near you And I hear you speak my name Softly in my ear you breathe a flame Lover, when we're dancing, keep on Glancing in my eyes Till love's own entrancing music dies All of my future is in you Your ev'ry plan I design Promise you'll always continue to be mine Lover, please be tender. When you're tender, fears depart. Lover, I surrender to my heart. Lover, it's immoral, but why quarrel with our bliss When two lips of coral want to kiss? I say "The Devil is in you""" and to resist you I try; But if you didn't continue I would die! Lover"please be tender. When you're tender"fears depart Lover"I surrender to my heart.
