Cold Sheets Tonight

The embers fading on the wooden floor
I never wanted anybody more
The midnight shadows creeping on the wall
I am just waiting for your late-night call
The engine humming on the highway drive
Your touch is all I need to feel alive
A quiet longing deep inside my chest
I want to hold you till we both find rest
The hour is late and all the lights are low
There is a secret only we can know
The distance fading as I pull you near
I want to whisper softly in your ear
These cold sheets tonight without your touch
I never knew I could desire so much
Come bring your fire to the empty space
And let us tangle in this sweet embrace
Cold sheets tonight, I need you by my side
Cold sheets tonight, there is nothing left to hide
The whiskey sitting in the heavy glass
I watch the hours in the darkness pass
Your memory lingers like a sweet perfume
I want your body in this lonely room
The hour is late and all the lights are low
There is a secret only we can know
The distance fading as I pull you near
I want to whisper softly in your ear
These cold sheets tonight without your touch
I never knew I could desire so much
Come bring your fire to the empty space
And let us tangle in this sweet embrace
Cold sheets tonight, I need you by my side
Cold sheets tonight, there is nothing left to hide
The clock is ticking on the bedroom wall
I wait to hear your footsteps in the hall
The rhythm beating like a heavy drum
I feel the magic of the night to come
Let Sayed be the fire that keeps you warm
And we will find our shelter from the storm
You are the only one I want to see
Come over here and share this night with me
These cold sheets tonight without your touch
I never knew I could desire so much
Come bring your fire to the empty space
And let us tangle in this sweet embrace
