You asked me if I would lie with you in the desert darkness -

here is my answer...

Will you hold me till I feel the cold no more
and until I glow all over

Will you hold me until I feel only the heat
seeping into my body and soul

Will you hold me while my hands caress you
and my mouth finds the taste of you

Will you hold me while the winds shriek and howl
until I know not myself the sounds

Will you hold me while I straddle your hips
and fuse your body with mine

Will you hold me when I keen your name
into the desert's blossoming dawn

Will you hold me until only the embers glow
and the morning dew grows cold on my skin

Will you hold me until I cry and moan
From a pleasure so pure - its pain I feel
