Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Lover, when you're near me and I hear you speak my name
Softly in my ear you breathe a flame
Lover, it's immoral but why quarrel with our bliss
When two lips have quarreled want to kiss?
I say the devil is in you
And to resist you, I try
But if you didn't continue
I would die
[Verse 2]
Lover, please be tender when your tender fears depart
Lover, please surrender to my heart
Lover, when you're near me and I hear you speak my name
Softly in my ear you breathe a flame
Lover, it's immoral but why quarrel with our bliss
When two lips have quarreled want to kiss?
I say the devil is in you
And to resist you, I try
But if you didn't continue
I would die
[Verse 3]
Lover, lover, please be tender
When your tender fears depart
Lover, please surrender to my heart
[Verse 4]
Lover, when you're near me and I hear you speak my name
Softly, softly in my ear you breathe, you breathe, you breathe a flame
Lover, it's immoral but why quarrel with our bliss
When two lips have quarreled want to kiss?
I say the devil is in you
And to resist you, I try
But if you didn't continue
I would die
[Verse 5]
Lover, please be tender when your tender fears depart
Lover, please surrender to my heart
Surrender
Surrender
Lover
