Pull Me Back Down

I melt into this caress,

Heartbeat slowing,

Racing … ever hesitating,

Now, pull me back down.

 

Heart heavy,

Only to drown,

Oh, Love, what you’ve given.

Pull me back down.

 

And you’re terrible,

I understand.

I know … I know …

Please pull me back down.

 

Let me get lost …

Desperate and wasted.

Your hand on my throat,

Pull me back down.

 

And, I’m not what you want,

You’ve no highs … no lows,

I know … I know.

Love, pull me back down.

 

I’m not afraid of a little death

Let me fall,

Let me feel,

Let me slowly crawl before I kneel.

 

This desire inside,

The thrill of it all,

Only to last a moment or so …

Oh, but oh … pull me back down.

 

This loneliness I can’t escape,

But in your arms embrace,

I know …. I know …

My own mistake.

 

And, for this love I’d give … I’d give …

For just a brief interlude in this heaven.

Baby, please pull me back down.
