Anandi: Music
Language of Desire
(Anandi)
When I woke up you were lying there
Soundly sleeping, a face without a care
The more I looked, the more I needed you
The more I needed you, the more I felt like a fool
This was not part of my plan
To be under your command
Awake we fished around the TV screens
In the spaces we spoke quietly
Voices stolen by angels of the night
As I wrapped myself around your darkened light
Pleasures need is so hard to quell
As I fall under its spell
I forget words easily
But the language came quickly
I didn’t need them to describe
How I felt deep inside
In the smallest hours of the day
There was nothing left for us to say
Clinging to the limbs of desire
Once again you took me one step higher
In conversations of empty touch
I had told you far too much
I forget words easily
But the language came quickly
I didn’t need them to describe
How I felt deep inside
