An album about marriage would be incomplete and just plain wrong without a really sexy, romantic song. I don’t know if this song is either of those things, but that’s what I was aiming for.
Slow down and breathe
Let your arms become the rising tide
Slowly enveloping me
Slow down and sigh
My arms become your sanctuary
shutting out the city’s cry
when we dance...
Slow down and smile
let your heart see things that eyes will miss
put your troubled mind to rest for a while
Slow down and sing
Unwrap the gift of another day
which another night alone can bring
when we dance...
Slow down and dance
Our bodies are a distant star
We float as one in a sea of night.
Not space - not time
Nothing will come between us
Not fear - not pride
Nothing will come between us
Not breath - not sin
Nothing will come between us
Not cloth - not skin
Nothing will come between us
Ours is the chocolate that lingers on your lips
the silk and satin that grace your hips
Ours is the music of the universe
The heavens beat the pulse and drown the curse
Ours is the thunder and lightning and rain
A marriage of passion; a crime of champagne
Ours is the blood and the brain and the sweat
A sacred promise that we’ll never, no never forget
