Maria Lawson - The Poet Lyrics

Oh, ooh

You stole a poem from a book
Made believe that it was yours
You seduced me with those words (you seduced me)
And I couldn't help but fall
I fell in love with you that night
I let the lyrics speak to me
They cast a spell upon my heart
With their sensuality

The truth is you were faking it (you were faking it)
That beautiful verse was counterfeit
Caught you doin' a de Bergerac
You may be cute yeah
But I need deeper than that

If writting on paper can steal my heart away
Just imagine what his lips on my body would say (what would it say?)
If words were kisses he'd be making love to me
Arousing my emotions, (touching me) touching me with poetry

Take my eyes, my heart, my soul
For without thee I'm incomplete, oh

Baby you were well rehearsed
With your borrowed pick up lines
Your pretty eyes gave you away
Body language doesn't lie

(the truth is)
The truth is he was faking it (he was faking it)
He stole my words, he's counterfeit
(cos I'm the poet)
I'm not doing a de Bergerac
(Belive me girl) You need to hear me girl
I'm deeper than that

If writting on paper can steal my heart away (steal your heart way)
Just imagine (just imagine) what his lips on my body would say (my body would say)
If words were kisses (were kisses) he'd be making love to me
Arousing my emotions, touching me with poetry

The wind howls - the earth shakes
The rivers flood - the dam breaks
I gotta hear his voice - I gotta touch his skin
Gonna search the world 'til I find him

Thine kiss is unknown to me
Shall there be no reason yet to breathe
And if your heart is spoken for
Condemned am I forever more

If writting on paper can steal my heart away (steal your heart away)
Just imagine (just imagine) what his lips on my body would say
If words were kisses (words were kisses) he'd be making love to me
Arousing my emotions (your emotions), touchng me with poetry

If writting on paper can steal your heart away
Just imagine what my lips on your body would say (what would it say?)
If words were kisses you'd be making love with me
Arousing my emotions, touchnig me with poetry

DURING FADE:
If writting on paper can steal my heart away
Just imagine what his lips on my body would say
If words were kisses he'd be making love to me
Arousing my emotions, touching me with poetry

Thine kiss is unknown to me
You know what I say
Shall there be no reason yet to breathe
Breathe
And if your heart is spoken for
Ah ha
Condemmed am I forever more
Oh
