Homecoming

Walking into light from the blank evening sky

Knuckles rub away the darkness circling my eyes

Walking into warmth from the cold evening air

Numb white fingers push greasy rain through my hair

You walk into view from shadow thrown against the door

Hands reach out and grasp the moment they've been waiting for

You pull me close, dampness seeps through to your skin

You peel the layers away, I feel the fire ignite within

You create the feeling, I contain the need

It's moments that we're stealing, no pleasure's ever free

You sustain the rhythm, I'll maintain the beat

It's the only chance we're given, let's turn this cold to heat

You possess the notion, I take full heed

We're bound by this emotion, two bodies, one heartbeat

You create the feeling, I contain the need

You sustain the rhythm, I'll maintain the beat

Desire comes alive, nothing interrupts the flow

Water nurtures every crevice where this love needs to grow

Sliding to the floor, we swell, falling to the ground

The world becomes a place with no clear shapes, with no clear sounds

We're lost for a short while in the knot where locks entwine

You pour the freedom from deep inside, I drink it back like wine

The murmur of your voice, soft words soothe away the doubt

Your strength so essential, something I can't do without

You create the feeling, I contain the need

It's moments that we're stealing, no pleasure's ever free

You sustain the rhythm, I'll maintain the beat

It's the only chance we're given, let's turn this cold to heat

You possess the notion, I take full heed

We're bound by this emotion, two bodies, one heartbeat

You create the feeling, I contain the need

You sustain the rhythm, I'll maintain the beat

Inside we slow each movement till we're static once again

Outside the city runs, cars through roads like blood through veins

Here sweet sticky air, like a cover, keeps us warm

Drops of love fall from us, the last moments of the storm

Opening my eyes, you're even closer now to me

As the crowd goes pushing onwards, crashing forward like a sea

We turn and feel the world, right now a million miles away

It's always there to interfere but I'm always here to say

You create the feeling, I contain the need

It's moments that we're stealing, no pleasure's ever free

You sustain the rhythm, I'll maintain the beat

It's the only chance we're given, let's turn this cold to heat

You possess the notion, I take full heed

We're bound by this emotion, two bodies, one heartbeat

You create the feeling, I contain the need

You sustain the rhythm, I'll maintain the beat

You sustain the rhythm, I'll maintain the beat

You sustain the rhythm, I'll maintain the beat

You sustain the rhythm, I'll maintain the beat

You sustain the rhythm, I'll maintain the beat

You sustain the rhythm, I'll maintain the beat

You sustain the rhythm, I'll maintain the beat

You sustain the rhythm, I'll maintain the beat

You sustain the rhythm, I'll maintain the beat
