Essence

[raybear]

(Written by Lucinda Williams)

Baby, sweet baby, you're my drug
Come on and let me taste your stuff
Baby, sweet baby, bring me your gift
What surprise you gonna hit me with

I am waiting here for more
I am waiting by your door
I am waiting on your back steps
I am waiting in my car
I am waiting at this bar
I am waiting for your essence

Baby, sweet baby, whisper my name
Shoot your love into my vein
Baby, sweet baby, kiss me hard
Make me wonder who's in charge

Baby, sweet baby, I wanna feel your breath
Even though you like to flirt with death
Baby, sweet baby, can't get enough
Please come find me and help me get fucked up

Your essence
Your essence

I really love this song right now, and the words sound even better when they're actually being sung. But every once in awhile while listening, I have to chuckle because I think about that movie The Dark Crystal, where the gelflings (sp?) are rounded up and have their "essence" milked out of them for the bad guys to drink. I own the movie, but I think my friend De____ has it....I should get that back to watch....

More later.
