Come  now baby
 stay in bed,  don’t think  that it’s lazy
 get ourselves  another  god
don’t  let them tell us there isn’t  one (isn’t  one)
stay,  sweet honey
 life’s so fast,  ya know  it ain’t funny
 get ourselves  another  god
don’t  let them tell us there isn’t  one (isn’t  one)
 like we are just skin
 can you behold
 know beauty within
 know beauty inside  your body
 you don’t love anybody
why do  lovers
 choose others
 we circle,  entwine one-another
 in that mask  that we wear with each other
 oh my god  how I looked in that mirror
 and I looked  in a hollow picture
 it was something  I could frame
 that’s  right,  sweet-heart
 life’s tough  now, life  can be hard
 don’t blame me  for these pressures  in life
don’t  blame me for this sacrifice  (sacrifice)
ok,  sweet-heart
 take your time,  I know lovers  they part
 time slows  when you’re  in love
time  moves so fast when it’s gettin’  on (gettin’  on)
 cos we are just skin
 can you behold
 I know beauty within
 know beauty inside  my body
 I don’t love anybody
why do  lovers
 choose others
 to mirror  their pain,  yeah
 slow down stranger
 you know  that you’re in danger
 These demons  I've got they are major
 ready  for you to lay-ay-ay  it ooooonnnnn
ooooonnnnn ooooonnnnn ooooonnnnn
