I remember the electricity
when our hands first touched
the newness
the excitement
the taste of the forbidden.
It was a breaking of tension
the end of a game
and the beginning of so much more
As our lips touched
tasting each other
first softly
then firmly
then openly
we watched our inhibitions float away
turning unthinkable thoughts
into heavenly deeds
as our willpower collapsed
in the wind a quivering breath
But as we fade from mortal souls
and slip into a torrent of passion and desire
let's not fool ourselves about forever
nor pretend this is something grand
Let's be in love for one night
so we can watch it fade
when the morning comes
Let's live a lifetime
in these moonlight hours
and never look back in the dawn
Because we both have lives to lead
and our own trails to blaze
and even though tonight we burn for each other
our fire will smolder and die
under the weight of the morning dew
And then we can spend the rest of our lives
forgetting about this night
the night we gave in to an electric touch
and caressed away our deepest desires
