If I close my eyes

By: Shannon Lynn

If I close my eyes... we can be together;
In this place where only I can see you.
If I close my eyes... your touch warms my body;
I can feel the strength of your passion soothe me.

In a world so large, how did I manage to find you?
Like a soft breeze, you so gently walked into my life.
From the moment my eyes first looked upon you
I was taken forever, lost inside of you...

I can feel your lips press against mine.
How your scent intoxicates me
As I run my hands across your face,
Only to save your scent to run across mine.

Do you know that you have captured me?
I am forever under your spell.
When I see you walking towards me
My heart skips and butterflies are all about me.

I need to feel your heart race against my body.
The heat from your body is all I need.
Will you wrap your arms around me?
I need to breath the same rhythm as you.
Oh how you've taken my breath away.

My love, my desire to be with you grows.
The love I feel inside- burns.
Take me back to the place where the waves crashed;
Where only the moon shed its light on your face.

How do I make my fairytale come true?
What is the price I need to pay?
Only with you will I find my happy ending.

If I close my eyes we can be together
In the place where only I can see you.
I promise to love you forever;
I will never take my love away from you.
I promise to love you forever...
