only every time you come around
i'm a little shocked by the way you say
my name, your tongue a holy union made
sultry, needy your voice is the rushing wind
you bind my mind and i forget that the world has sin
my heart is a tree planted firmly in the ground
it's only you and me and there's no one else around
love me, deeply, you do it for me every day
your face is my peace and i know that'll never change
you're pretty and alluring, you got me on my knees
my heart is a tree planted firmly in the ground
it's only you and me and there's no one else around
forgive myself while i forgive yours
our hearts hold the treasure
and our words hold the key
so don't you hold out on me
my heart is a tree planted firmly in the ground
it's only you and me and there's no one else around
i like your life and i don't care if anyone sees
