The Sensual World
Mmm, yes
Then I'd taken the kiss of seedcake back from his mouth
Going deep gouth, go down
Mmm, yes
Took six big wheels and rolled our bodies
Off of Howth Head and into the flesh
Mmm, yes
He said I was a flower of the mountain, yes
But now I've powers over a woman's body
Yes
Stepping out of the page
Into the sensual world
Stepping out
To where the water and the earth caress
And the down of a peach says
Mmm, yes
Do I look for those millionaires
Like a Machiavellian girl would?
When I could wear a sunset
Mmm, yes
And how we'd wished to live in the sensual world
You don't need words
Just one kiss, then another
Stepping out of the page
Into the sensual world
Stepping out of the page
Into the sensual world
And then our arrows of desire
Rewrite the speech
Mmm, yes
And then he whispered, would I
Mmm, yes
Be safe
Mmm, yes
From mountain flowers?
And at first with the charm around him
Mmm, yes
He loosened it
So if it slipped between my breasts
He'd rescue it
Mmm, yes
And his spark took life in my hand
And...
Mmm, yes
I said, "Mmm, yes
But not yet"
Mmm, yes, yes
Mmm, yes
Yes
Then I'd taken the kiss of seedcake back from his mouth
Going deep gouth, go down
Mmm, yes
Took six big wheels and rolled our bodies
Off of Howth Head and into the flesh
Mmm, yes
He said I was a flower of the mountain, yes
But now I've powers over a woman's body
Yes
Stepping out of the page
Into the sensual world
Stepping out
To where the water and the earth caress
And the down of a peach says
Mmm, yes
Do I look for those millionaires
Like a Machiavellian girl would?
When I could wear a sunset
Mmm, yes
And how we'd wished to live in the sensual world
You don't need words
Just one kiss, then another
Stepping out of the page
Into the sensual world
Stepping out of the page
Into the sensual world
And then our arrows of desire
Rewrite the speech
Mmm, yes
And then he whispered, would I
Mmm, yes
Be safe
Mmm, yes
From mountain flowers?
And at first with the charm around him
Mmm, yes
He loosened it
So if it slipped between my breasts
He'd rescue it
Mmm, yes
And his spark took life in my hand
And...
Mmm, yes
I said, "Mmm, yes
But not yet"
Mmm, yes, yes
Mmm, yes
Yes
