Em7Dig if you will the Dpicture
DOf you and I engaged in a Em7kiss
Em7The sweat of your body Dcovers me
DCan you my darlin’ Em7picture this?
Em7Dig if you can a Dcourtyard
DAn ocean of violets in bloEm7om
Em7Animals strike Dcurious poses
DThey feel the heat
The heat between me a-and

Em7How can you just leave me sDtanding?
DAlone in a world that's so-o Em7cold
Em7Maybe I'm just too demDandin’

Why do we scream at each other?D
