I am not asking
(not asking)
I am telling you
What happens next

You walked in smelling like the summer outside
Hair still damp from the heat of the day
I closed the door and I killed the lights
The only lamp left is the one by the bed
I can see your chest rise when I step closer
I can feel the static between your skin and mine
Your back is already against the wall now
You are not going anywhere tonight
I want to feel the heat before I touch you
I want to watch you try to hold still
(hold still)
I can see the pulse moving in your throat
And I haven't еven
Put my hands on you
Yet

Take 'еm off
(take 'em off)
I want to see every inch of what you're hiding
Take 'em off
(now)
Slow
(slow)
Let me watch
Take 'em off
(all of it)
The night is long and I am patient
But my patience
Has a breaking point
Take 'em off

I pull the sheet back like I own the room
Because tonight
I do
Your fingers grip the edge of the mattress
You're trying to stay composed
(you can't)
I put one hand flat against your sternum
Feel your heartbeat slamming through your ribs
The sweat already forming at your collarbone
Before I've even
Begun
I want to hear the sound you make
When you stop pretending
You don't want this
(you want this)
Every nerve ending you've been guarding
Is mine
Tonight

Take 'em off
(take 'em off)
I want to see every inch of what you're hiding
Take 'em off
(now)
Slow
(slow)
Let me watch
Take 'em off
(all of it)
The night is long and I am patient
But my patience
Has a breaking point
Take 'em off

You think you know how this goes
You don't
I am going to take my time
That is when I start
The window is open, hear the night outside
Cicadas screaming in the heavy air
Your hair spread out across the pillow
Like something sacred and wrecked
I press my weight down slow and you finally release
The whole city humming somewhere far below us
And nothing exists
But this heat
And your skin
And the sound
You just made

Take 'em off
(already gone)
Nothing left between us but the temperature
Take 'em off
(they're on the floor)
Somewhere you stopped keeping track
Take 'em off
(take 'em off)
This is what the body has been asking for
All
Night
Long

(heat)
(skin)
(weight)
(yours)
(mine)
(now)
