Your Tongue Like The Sun In My Mouth

I met a woman from another time I couldn't think but a drink from her eyes Was like water to wine She wet my dreams with her distinctive mind I search the desert for a treasure And a measure of life denied I'm driven by cars and guitars and her voice Ripping up and down my spine And now I'm giving my life for her sight To be mine and in her presence my fate unwinds For when her essence draws me too near I can taste her with tears on my tongue Like the sun in my mouth I met a man who kicked my front door down He blew in with the Santa Ana winds And a half-cocked hound He fits my body like a one horse town And I was drunk like a vagabond on his street And I lay face down And I rode his joy like a child on a merry-go-round I was young in his eyes I was sweet on his thighs I was profound I was shot like a free bird in flight To the ground I woke this morning from a deadly dream He was my lover, he was my filler He was my chocolate-colored killer He was me I'm built to run, my will is to deceive But you penetrate severely I am walking insecurely on my knees And I will wait through winter, spring and summer If you'll fall in love with me I will dance so slowly You will hardly know I breathe From Rome, to Madrid, to Paris On the breeze my scent will find you Lost by degrees from time to time you'll sing With my lips or my hands on your hips Or my tongue like the sun in your mouth
