Dear I write from these walls
Your majesty calls
Sun's beatin down on wherever you are
And you're my chastity
I want you to see
My love is strong as eternity
It's night time
Well I feel it most
It's the silence the absence of light
And love's hard
But I'm stay'n true
Till the day that I come back to you
Sweet. It's my memory
Of you and of me
Naked and clean just like Adam and Eve
They'd love in the rain
So unashamed
You course through my body wherever you are
It's night time
Well I'll feel it most
It's the silence the absence of light
And love's hard
But I'll see it through
Till the day that I come back to you
Well, guess I better go
But I want you to know
You're all that I have at the end of the day
And in my chastity
I want you to see
My love is strong as eternity
It's night time
Well I feel it most
It's the silence the absence of light
And love's hard
But I'm stay'n true
Till the day that I come back to you
I feels so right
On a warm still night
Fell like I'm commin commin to you
I feel so right
On a warm still night
Feels like I'm commin commin to you
Commin commin to you
Commin commin to you
