Justify Me

There's something about candlelight
Stunning trance, in a woman's eyes
Glimpse to an intimate place and stardust shine
There's something about a good man
Willing to take a real, good while
Strong hands gone tender, up and down her spine

Release the love that's long been sleeping there
Slow-trace her face and body, pull back her hair
With hard kisses, hell-bent to have their way
Heaven-sent, no holding back, intent to stay
Making a memory, the first of many
(tonight,... forever and a day)

(Justify me ... and I will love you, like mad)

There's something about a man's smile
Playful, hinting, begging to seize
He must have her,.. words honey-dripping, "You're mine"
There's something about a woman
Waking that imagination
He knows when dawn comes, it will be divine

Release the love that's long been sleeping there
Soft hands gone strong, taking his shiver with dare
With hard kisses, hell-bent to have their way
Heaven-sent, no holding back, intent to stay
Making a memory, the first of many
(tonight,... forever and a day)

(Justify me ... and I will love you, like mad)
