you caught me lingering
in another girl’s paradise
the way she paints the world –
I want that in my life
Emeralds, you should know,
are renting in her meadow
with a stroke beauty lives
how could I resist
you are Desire

when it all is said
said and done
who can love you
and still be standing
there’s Mary calling up a storm
can I take from you
and not keep taking
naked as day
Gemma follows him
Does it all come down to
the thing one girl fears
in the night
is another girl’s paradise

through twists and turns
Jasmine foxed me
in her grove
arms filled with Honey-bells,
St Michaels Sanford Bloods
“you have come to discover
what you want”
what I want
is not to want
what isn’t mine
“But I am Desire”

when it all is said
said and done
who can love you
and still be standing
there’s Mary calling up a storm
can I take from you
and not keep taking
naked as day
Gemma follows him
Does it all come down to
the thing one girl fears
in the night
is another girl’s paradise

and I know you keep telling me
does it all come down to
the thing one girl fears
in the night
is another girl
is another girl
is another girl’s paradise
