Caramel

It won't do

To dream of caramel

To think of cinnamon

And long for you

It won't do

To stir a deep desire,

To fan a hidden fire

That can never burn true.

I know your name

I know your skin

I know the way

These things begin

But I don't know

How I would live with myself,

What I'd forgive of myself

If you don't go

So goodbye

Sweet appetite

No single bite

Could satisfy

I know your name

I know your skin

I know the way

These things begin

But I don't know

How I would live with myself

What I would give of myself

If you don't go

It won't do

To dream of caramel

To think of cinnamon

And long

For you
