Mariah Carey
The Roof

It wasn't raining yet but it was definitely
A little misty on that warm november night
And my heart was pounding, my inner voice resounding
Begging me to turn away but I just had to see your face to feel alive

And then you casually walked in the room
And I was twisted in the web of my desire for you
My apprehension blew away, I only wanted you
To taste my sadness as you kissed me in the dark

Every time I feel the need
I envision you caressing me and go back in time
To relieve the splendor of you and I
On the rooftop that rainy night

And so we finished the Moet
And started feeling liberated
And I surrendered as you took me in your arms
I was so caught up in the moment
I couldn't bear to let you go yet
So I threw caution to the wind
And started listening to my longing heart

And then you softly pressed your lips to mine
And feelings surfaced I'd suppressed for such a long time
And for a while I forgot the sorrow and the pain
And melted with you as we stood there in the rain

Every time I feel the need
I envision you caressing me and go back in time
To relieve the splendor of you and I
On the rooftop that rainy night

Every time I feel the need
I envision you caressing me and go back in time
To relieve the splendor of you and I
On the rooftop that rainy night

Last night I dreamed that I
Whispered the words I love you
And touched you so very aubtly
As we were kissing goodbye

Every time I feel the need
I envision you caressing me and go back in time
To relieve the splendor of you and I
On the rooftop that rainy night
