Lyrics
Verse 1
The carnations you wore that night,
They bled their red, they lost their light.
But other blooms, in fiery hue,
Set all my lips aflame for you.
Chorus
I drink your beauty like fine wine,
Each time I hold your gaze in mine.
A wine so rare, it warms the soul,
And sets my fevered cheeks aglow.
Verse 2
Your eyes — they hold a hidden shore,
A summer sun I can’t ignore.
And though I never quite know why,
You’re like a fragrance I breathe by.
Chorus
I drink your beauty like fine wine,
Each time I hold your gaze in mine.
A wine so rare, it warms the soul,
And sets my fevered cheeks aglow.
Verse 3
When you’re asleep, I drift in deep,
Both king and slave in dreams you keep.
With pleasures burning, fierce and wild,
I lose my mind, yet stay beguiled.
Chorus
I drink your beauty like fine wine,
Each time I hold your gaze in mine.
A wine so rare, it warms the soul,
And sets my fevered cheeks aglow.
Outro
I know you want, and yet you fear,
Desire speaks, but not too clear.
But I will dare, I will confess,
I hate you so — because I love you.
I love you… I love you…
