This Moment

Can I love you
Please for just this moment
One second in time
From a lifetime
Can I hold you
In my arms and my mind
Maybe even in my heart
No, there's nothing left there
But I want to hold you
Tight and close and dear
I want you here, near
Can I please, if you please
I can get on my knees
Bring you to yours
Give you my favors
Taste each others flavors
If you'll allow me
And if I'll allow you
All the things we could do
It really would be nice
I guess that's my vice
To want, to need, to care
No, I don't care
Just want you here
Tonight is alright
But tomorrow is not
Can't stand the thought
Of it lasting that long
Because nothing ever does
Not even love
No it never does
So just let me hold you
Just let me love you
Then go away, never stay
Because I don't know
What that means
It just seems obscene
And I want to be clean
Clean heart and mind
Nothing here for you to find
Except a warm bed
And a woman who is willing
To let go, because it's all I know
