with attention
with the feel of human touch
with the kiss of giving lips
with the words of praise
with the sound of need
with the want of human
with the beckon to stay near
I fall in love with flattery
do you want me
do you need me
will you hold me
will you touch me
wipe away my tears
patch up my wounds
I fall in love with flattery
make me feel beautiful
make me miss your presence
tell me you miss mine
kiss me goodbye
kiss me hello
I fall in love with flattery
wake me with your skin
make contact available
let my lips touch yours
call me by my name
Please
Please
I'm begging for love
I fall in love with flattery
