First Taste
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I lie in an early bed
Thinking late thoughts
Waiting for the black to replace my blue
I do not struggle in your web
Because it was my aim to get caught
But daddy longlegs
I feel that I'm finally growing weary
Of waiting to be consumed by you
Give me the first taste, let it begin
Heaven cannot wait forever
Darling, just start the chase -
I'll let you win but you must
Make the endeavor
Oh, your love give me a heart contusion
Adagio breezes fill my skin with sudden red
Your hungry flirt borders intrusion
I'm building memories
On things we have not said
Full is not heavy as empty
Not nearly my love
Not nearly my love
Not nearly
Give me the first taste, let it begin
Heaven cannot wait forever
Darling, just start the chase -
I'll let you win, but you must
Make the endeavor
