Magnet

A flicker of flame is lit at the edge of my heart
Silently it burns, spreading, growing into unexpected passion
My butterfly flutters, leaving dust on your unnoticing hand

Pulling and caressing our fingers together
Kissing lips and dancing swords
Unforgivable sin, too high the price to atone
Which precisely what makes us burning with desire

Embrace me tight and test my limits
Make me believe this is not a sin
Kiss me and repaint my body
Intoxicate and drown me in your charm

You might want to tie me up
If you love me, then show me some courage!
I can't help but love ridiculous things
So let us go as far as we can go

With hearts that have gone astray
We'll easily melt and bond together
That there's not enough time for us
Even to feel and love each other's tenderness

We are not dreaming, all this time
It's you and me in the flesh, face to face, heart to heart
I know we can't turn back as soon as we touch
It won't matter, for you're my one and only love

As dawn breaks, I shake my weary head
I end up crying in silent tears
I can hear you breathe "It's okay" to me
But I can feel your tears rolling down your cheek

Draw me closer like we are two magnets
That when we separate, we will reunite again
Let's become one, it's okay not to be able to turn back
It won't matter, for you're my one and only love
