Would you let me?
Would you let me in-
your soul, your heart, your body.
What would it be like?
This place.
Inside. In love?
Would we read by candle light
Each trembling secret of ourselves?
Would you let me find the dark,
Would you lead me to the light?
If I needed you to hold me,
To touch me,
And be inside me;
Would you let me?
Would you let me love you?
I don't think you would.
But I still see you,
In all your beauty;
as a man,
as a friend,
as a bright and whirling star,
with its tail burning at both ends.
And maybe that's the best love we could have.
Because would I?
Would I let you.
Would I let you, love me, too?
