The Poet
Oh, mmm,
You stole a poem from a book
Made believe that it was yours
You seduced me with those words (you seduced me)
And I couldn't help but fall
I fell in love with you that night
I let the lyrics speak to me
They cast a spell upon my heart
With their sensuality
The truth is you were faking it (you were faking it)
That beautiful was counterfeit
Caught you doing a 'de Bergerac'
You may be cute yeah
But I need deeper than that
If writting on paper
Can steal my heart away
Just imagine what his lips
On my body would say
If words were kisses
He'd be making love to me
Arousing my emotions
Touching me with poetry
Take my eyes, my heart, my soul
For without thee I'm incomplete, oh-ho
Baby you were well rehearsed
With your borrowed pick-up lines
Your pretty eyes gave you away
Body language doesn't lie
(the truth is)
The truth is he was faking it (he was faking it)
He stole my words, he's counterfeit ('cause I'm the poet)
I'm not doing a 'de Bergerac'
(Believe me girl) You need to hear me girl
I'm deeper than that
If writting on paper
Can steal my heart away
Just imagine what his lips
On my body would say
If words were kisses
He'd be making love to me
Arousing my emotions
Touching me with poetry
The wind howls, the earth shakes
The rivers flood, the dam breaks
I gotta hear his voice, I gotta touch his skin
Gonna search the world, 'till I find him
Thine kiss is unknown to me
Shall there be no reason yet to breathe
And if your heart is spoken for
Condemned am I forever more
If writting on paper
Can steal my heart away
Just imagine what his lips
On my body would say
If words were kisses
He'd be making love to me
Arousing my emotions
Touching me with poetry
If writting on paper
Can steal your heart away
Just imagine what my lips
On your body would say
If words were kisses
You'd be making love to me
Arousing my emotions
Touching me with poetry
Thine kiss is unknown to me
You know what I say
Shall there be no reason yet to breathe
And if your heart is spoken for
Condemmed am I forever more
You stole a poem from a book
Made believe that it was yours
You seduced me with those words (you seduced me)
And I couldn't help but fall
I fell in love with you that night
I let the lyrics speak to me
They cast a spell upon my heart
With their sensuality
The truth is you were faking it (you were faking it)
That beautiful was counterfeit
Caught you doing a 'de Bergerac'
You may be cute yeah
But I need deeper than that
If writting on paper
Can steal my heart away
Just imagine what his lips
On my body would say
If words were kisses
He'd be making love to me
Arousing my emotions
Touching me with poetry
Take my eyes, my heart, my soul
For without thee I'm incomplete, oh-ho
Baby you were well rehearsed
With your borrowed pick-up lines
Your pretty eyes gave you away
Body language doesn't lie
(the truth is)
The truth is he was faking it (he was faking it)
He stole my words, he's counterfeit ('cause I'm the poet)
I'm not doing a 'de Bergerac'
(Believe me girl) You need to hear me girl
I'm deeper than that
If writting on paper
Can steal my heart away
Just imagine what his lips
On my body would say
If words were kisses
He'd be making love to me
Arousing my emotions
Touching me with poetry

Arousing my emotions
Touching me with poetry
If writting on paper

If words were kisses
You'd be making love to me
Arousing my emotions
Touching me with poetry
Thine kiss is unknown to me
You know what I say
Shall there be no reason yet to breathe
And if your heart is spoken for
Condemmed am I forever more
