When Desire Comes
a cascade

When desire comes knocking,
take care not to send her away;
she’s the only guest we shall see today
Temptation can stay a little while,
but she cannot be here, still cavorting,
when desire comes knocking
Seduction likes to play mind games,
but she entertains me so,
take care not to send her away
Fear gets jealous when I court desire;
he wishes he could take her place, but
she’s the only guest we shall see today
