| What Choice Did I Have? Out on the town with the one I love Dining, dancing, anticipating what was to come Lost in the feelings we shared When I felt a pull so strong I had no choice but to follow So I let my eyes track, until they met yours There, they froze, and a feeling of desire Such as I've never known, washed over me Leaving me breathless I could see into your heart, into your soul And I was lost, and found, at the same time I couldn't say how much time passed But suddenly, my love was at my side Leading me out the door What choice did I have, but to go But I left behind a part of myself The other half of my soul, that was you |
| Cruising You walk in here with your jeans so tight It's a miracle that you're moving And that shirt you're wearing, my, oh my It's so obvious that you're cruising Well, cruise on over here, sweet thang I'm the one your mama warned you bout You might think that you're the predator But I'm gonna turn you inside out When I am done, you're gonna be tamed And you'll belong to me, heart and soul I've decided you're gonna be mine Tonight you'll play a different role The hunted, instead of the hunter Course you're not gonna know what hit you You'll be thinking that you're in control But I'll be pushing your buttons too I'll let you chase me til I catch you I promise it will be worth your while And when, at last, the game is over You will have every reason to smile |
| The Fall I had it in my power to bring you down But I just couldn't do that to you Though we are no longer together I couldn't be the one to destroy you I'm quite certain you'll fall anyway But your blood won't be on my hands I suppose, by standing idly by I will be guilty to some degree For as I could destroy you I could also save you, but I won't You've put yourself in this position I won't be the one to pull you out And perhaps in falling, you'll rise again And be the person you once were The one I loved and respected Or maybe it will only make you harder Either way, your fall is inevitable And I will be watching with interest |
