If

If it weren't for your soulful eyes,

I wouldn't be needing these alibis.

If it weren't for your astounding good looks,

I would be content just to read my books.

If it weren't for your mind, so clever,

I wouldn't be needing you...ever.

The way you pull me close,

With such obvious desire.

The way you whisper in my ear,

Everything I want to hear.

The way you touch my skin,

The most fabulous of sin.

If it weren't for you...
