What You Are

Like an x-rated movie
I never quite understood
An afternoon's pleasure
That really might do me good
A bad streak for days gone by
When youth was ours to waste
Love doesn't last
You can't trade one for another
Don't let it get past this time
Early in the morning the sweetness
Late one night the sublime
How can I take you there?
Make me an offer
And I'll never leave the nest
Such a fine looking mother
Hold me close to your breast
One man is not enough
When every day's the same
Cocked and pulled back
And ever so right on the trigger
With only one track in mind
Early in the morning the sweetness
Late one night the sublime
How can I take you there?

How can I take you, how can I break you
How can I make you cry?
I'll take you there, we'll walk on thin air
But can you teach me how to fly?
