Lyrics

[Verse 1]

It won't do to dream of caramel

To think of cinnamon and long for you

It won't do to stir a deep desire

To fan a hidden fire that can never burn true

[Verse 2]

I know your name

I know your skin

I know the way these things begin

But I don't know how I would live with myself

What I'd forgive of myself if you don't go

[Verse 3]

So goodbye, sweet appetite

No single bite could satisfy

[Verse 4]

I know your name

I know your skin

I know the way these things begin

But I don't know how I would live with myself

What I would give of myself if you don't go

[Verse 5]

It won't do to dream of caramel

To think of cinnamon and long for you
