Blowing kisses on a sandy shore
As the sea breezes begged for more
A storm got up as the sun went down
And instead of a smile
There was a frown
And...
I could never want to be in another place
The wind grabbed your long hair
And blew it into my face
And I couldn't breathe at all
Your tongue was down my throat
And I didn't hear the sailor
Who was drowning in his boat...
You took me and held me tighter than ever
Your kiss took my breath away
And my love is yours forever
And though I can't breathe or speak
Or move in your tightened grasp
I know our love is forever,
But could you stop and let me gasp...
For breath...?
The world is getting darker and
I am seeing spots in front of my eye
Could you just let go for a minute
Or I might keel over and die
"Mmmmm..mmmm" I utter in alarm
As you continue to kiss me in this weather
Sorry if I end up breaking your arm
But I know our love is Forever...
And down I go held only in your strong embrace
With hair and sand and sea salt all over my face
This is not romantic, I am not crying
But I might be ... might just be dying...
You let go and I gasp for air
Only to get a mouthful of hair...
I almost drowned in your arms my lover
Was a breath stealing kiss.. but I'm glad its over...
Phew!!!
