I still keep your memory slipping down my skin
Tracing every curve where my hands have been
A little taste of honey on a midnight breeze
You always know exactly how to bring me to my knees
A rusted mailbox sitting by the dusty road
I used to wait for everything your paper showed
But now I've got your breathing right against my chest
A sweet southern rhythm that won't let me rest
And every time you look into my eyes
I feel the temperature begin to rise
The distance fading as I pull you close
You are the secret that my body knows
Yeah, that was the year the letters stopped
We let the ink dry and the papers drop
I traded reading for the taste of your lips
And found my heaven resting right upon your hips
Never need to write when I can pull you near
Every single message is a whisper in your ear
The fire is burning softly in the living room
I'm intoxicated by your sweet perfume
Your fingers pulling gently on my faded jeans
We're painting every color of my midnight dreams
And every time you look into my eyes
I feel the temperature begin to rise
The distance fading as I pull you close
You are the secret that my body knows
Yeah, that was the year the letters stopped
We let the ink dry and the papers drop
I traded reading for the taste of your lips
And found my heaven resting right upon your hips
Never need to write when I can pull you near
Every single message is a whisper in your ear
I traded all the ink for the warmth of skin
A beautiful surrender where the shadows begin
I'll show you how Sayed can love you through the night
A gentle fever burning in the candlelight
The quiet moments saying everything we need
A hungry fire that the midnight feeds
I don't need to write it down anymore.
I'd rather just show you.
Yeah, that was the year the letters stopped
