Love me gently

You’re a storm with a velvet edge

A wildfire wrapped in lace

I watch you dance on the razor’s edge

And I’m lost in your embrace

Go easy on me

Oh can’t you see

Your love’s a tidal wave

Crashing over me

Go easy on me

Let me catch my breath

I’m drowning in your love

And I’m scared to death

I crave the quiet

You crave the crowd

I’m a whisper

You’re a shout

You paint the sky in furious hues

While I fade in and out

But your heart is true

It shines so bright

I just need a softer light

Go easy on me

Oh can’t you see

Your love’s a tidal wave

Crashing over me

Go easy on me

Let me catch my breath

I’m drowning in your love

And I’m scared to death

You’re my anchor and my storm

You keep me safe and leave me torn

I love you

Oh

I love you still

But love me gently if you will
