You are not in love

 

 

 

 

You are not in love, you say, but only love me,

The heat of my body is something you crave,

But you are not in love.

Whispers at night, splendor in the afternoon,

And you are not in love.

My voice on the phone makes you shiver, sigh,

Though you are not in love.

You reach for my hand as you walk, touch by touch,

And you are not in love,

You say, but only love me,

Like me, want me, need me,

Think of me and miss me;

You are not in love, you say,

No, not in love

With me.
