Lyrics

Here in the night I lay
You?re just a pillow away
Gazing at a moment
Take advantage of time together
Use me to your endless pleasure, dark or day
A little hard to say
You?re close enough to touch but so far away

All of the while I dream of everlasting chances
Give a sign of what?s on your mind or lose me way behind
I resign if we can?t align but I?m happily combined
So get a clue, come close to me, cuz that?s the way it?s supposed to be

Baby play with me, there?s always time to sleep
Much precious time we need for our hearts and minds to feed
Oh baby we should be a model for eternity
Yes baby certainly just a little courtesy

Chorus:
Make me glow, give it a spark when you stay with me
Won?t you show your measure of heart when you lay with me
All I know, we?re wasting away in complacency
Pushing your love away from me, all I know
