Strawberry Anthem

i want to hold him
i want to see him
i want to keep him close to me

and when the time comes
i'll have to show him
how much he means to me

but for right now
i'll keep on dreaming
about where I want to be

I want to touch him
I want to know him
I'll be able to make him see

His hands holding my cheeks
his eyes gazing into mine
I will rest my eyes finally

but for right now
I'll keep on betting
on the things I want to be

and when the time comes
i'll be ready to show him
just what he is to me

I want it to be something
more than the nothing
of everyday monotony

His hand holding mine
so he can stop reaching
aries for his aphrodite

I will feel him
I will love him
and escape the fantasy

I'll be able to find him
Then I will be with him
So we can sleep easy

When we wake to
the fading of day
laughing happily

I will want to kiss him
I will want to take him
into my ecstasy

If i let him in
if i bring him home
Maybe he will say to me

I have always loved you
with my heart and soul
my dearest. That is why

when the time comes
i'll have to show him
how much he means to me

because I need him
and he is in need
i'll spend every penny

to capture his attention
to inspire his adoration
to become his family

his life his world
his home his everything
his love, eternally
