I never felt my body electric jacked into the machinery of the night
Never heard the rhythmic breath in time, felt the rhythmic pulse
Never felt soul and body fused in release bound by the touch of fate
Never let my lips touch his, searching seeking yearning to taste one moment
Never let time slip the bonds of desire, my soul laid upon his body beautiful.
