The Sensual World

Lyrics

Mmm, yes
 Then I'd taken the kiss of seedcake back from his mouth
 Going deep gouth, go down
 Mmm, yes
 Took six big wheels and rolled our bodies
 Off of Howth Head and into the flesh
 Mmm, yes
 He said I was a flower of the mountain, yes
 But now I've powers over a woman's body
 Yes
 Stepping out of the page
 Into the sensual world
 Stepping out
 To where the water and the earth caress
 And the down of a peach says
 Mmm, yes
 Do I look for those millionaires
 Like a Machiavellian girl would?
 When I could wear a sunset
 Mmm, yes
 And how we'd wished to live in the sensual world
 You don't need words
 Just one kiss, then another
 Stepping out of the page
 Into the sensual world
 Stepping out of the page
 Into the sensual world
 ♪
 And then our arrows of desire
 Rewrite the speech
 Mmm, yes
 And then he whispered, would I
 Mmm, yes
 Be safe
 Mmm, yes
 From mountain flowers?
 And at first with the charm around him
 Mmm, yes
 He loosened it
 So if it slipped between my breasts
 He'd rescue it
 Mmm, yes
 And his spark took life in my hand
 And...
 Mmm, yes
 I said, "Mmm, yes
 But not yet"
 Mmm, yes, yes
 Mmm, yes
 Yes
