Between the Whispers and the Sighs, Revised
Between the whispers and the sighs (short version)
The sweet taste of champagne,
still lingers on her lips
The fragrance of jasmine oil,
slides from her fingertips
A mystic instigation,
your skin against my skin
Breathless anticipation,
for loving to begin
Chorus
Between the whispers and the sighs
I can read between the lines,
Between the whispers and the sighs
I sense our love is right on track,
and there's no going back
Trapped inside the vertigo,
as lovers rise and fall
Dizzy desire's the answer,
whenever romance calls.
There's a solemn silence,
no whispering of words
After love's expression,
only heartbeats are heard
Chorus
Between the whispers and the sighs,
I can read between the lines,
Between the whispers and the sighs,
I sense our love is right on track,
and there's no going back
Chorus Repeat
The sweet taste of champagne...
still...
lingers...
on...
her...
lips.
