BEHOLDING YOUA night of passion started by a single kiss A journey through a million fantasies All our doubts are stripped away As our hearts are allowed to play Further from the world now we recede While I'm beholding you While I'm beholding you Behold Our bodies are two vessels surging in the night Pink and peach awash inside our heads Sensation seeks release in pleasure Held back with a timely measure Leads us to our burning ecstasy While I'm beholding you While I'm beholding you Behold
The ecstasy of lovers coming together to form a single passionate flame is a beautiful thing.
Ecstasy the drug is a treacherous toxin that will trick you into burning a hole in your own brain. The reference in this song is to the former, not the latter. Words and music ©2000 William E.
