Let these tears heal your heart
Let them wash away the pain
Rest your head upon this shoulder
That I may breathe the essence of
Desires sweet refrain
Enfold me in your warmth
Let my lips lightly brush your skin
All the while let them whisper
Of your beauty without and within
Let my velvet touch erase the worry
From your troubled brow
Let me rid you of the past
For we are here and now
May your eyes be lost in mine
May my eyes drown in yours
May they find the answers to what
They went searching for
Then should the morning find us
Entwined in each others being
We’ll leave the echoes of the night
To desires sweet refrain

What’s not to enjoy? This is a lovely tender and gentle expression of love and fulfilled desire. One can only wish the lovers well, and maybe envy them, just a little.
