THE LYRICS:

Why’s it I smile when I am close to you?
Why’s it I get butterflies like I do?
You’re oh so new to me!
So soft with your pigtails and your iodine…

Candlelight shower foggy mirrors with your name
I wish I could see your mouth speaking my name
And oh if you do!
Love to find how your lips feel
And taste your iodine…

I knew that you were constant and true
(Hearts all around)
Lost control differently than I used to do.
Never found bliss in pillows or masochists
(Clutching a pillow)
Work it unearth it you’re worthy of this.
Unfolding me you wrapped around me
(Screaming a name)
Felt my little age’s serenity.
Tengo miedo de ser romantico
(No longer clueless…alone in the dark)
But I’m accepting the things I can change…

You’re not at arm’s length
So I cannot hold you
I wish I could shrink the distance
To this room.
Oh how I feel tonight!
This song is not crying
But longing for your iodine…
