Hey Beautiful

Hey beautiful with your dark skin

Down on Avenue A

I forget to behave

Drinking wine

Drunk on lust

Fill me till I fall

Leave me alone till I call

Then I’ll come by

You’ll wrap around me

I pretend this means something

As we make love till the sunrise

Then we stop

Sit and watch

Maybe we’ll see each other

Maybe we’ll say good-bye

But now the only thing that counts

Is the smile

The kiss

The taste

Skin

Felt within

Don’t lie to me and I’ll come back

Don’t try to take me

‘Cause I can’t be led

But if you let me lay

I’ll come to play

Let her go and then she’ll stay

Hey beautiful

Take a pretty picture
