The Law of Desire

The Law of Desire
(John Raymond Pollard)
2005-07-16

You approach and touch my shoulder
Whispering my name.
Only you can spark such passion
Only you can tame.
With each moment you get bolder.
Do you have no shame?
You begin to make me smolder;
I burst into flame,

All aglow with the love you inspire.
Love is tender; I surrender to the law of desire.

I just had a he-man sandwich
And although I'm through
Got the feeling I am famished,
Hungering for you.
Honey, how you stir my juices.
Ah, let's make a stew.
No, my passion is not rationed,
At least not for you.

How I hunger for the love you inspire.
Love is tender; I surrender to the law of desire.

There is a lesson they don't teach in school,
I am learning with you.

I bet love can't get much bigger
Than my love for you.
You've got your finger on my trigger;
Mine is on yours, too.
Circuit breakers start to melt down.
Oh, you blow my fuse.
I can feel a surge of power
In all that we do.

Love is electric; I detect we're hard wired.
I loose resistance and give in to the law of desire.

There is a lesson they don't teach in school,
I am learning with you.
