One Night with you

If I could spend one night with you, I wonder what we’d do;

Talk until the sun came up; maybe share a joke or two?

Or maybe I could take you out, to a restaurant so fine;

I would enjoy your company and adore you while we dine.

And then on to a bar or two, for a few drinks, or more;

Until at last I’d take you home and see you safely to your door.

I never would impose on you, something you would not do;

But I wonder if you’d invite me in, to spend the night with you?

I ask you if you're tired and you shake your head and smile,

I say, “I'll go back to my room”, but you say "stay a while;"

So, we sit down on the hotel bed, and I wish that I felt bolder,

But nervously I place one arm just around your shoulder;

You lay your head upon my chest and give a little sigh,

Encouraged, with my other hand, I gently stroke your thigh.

I turn to kiss you on the cheek, but you turn, I kiss your lips,

And I can feel your soft warm flesh, beneath my fingertips.

I ask if you're okay with this, "if you want me to, I'll stop”.

But you smile and shake your head and I think my heart will pop.

It’s all I dream, and I know it’s unlikely to come true,

But I wonder if I ever could spend just one night with you.
