===============================
I was lying in my bed last night
staring at a ceiling full of stars
When it suddenly hit me
I just have to let you know how I feel
We live together
in a photograph of time
Now I look into your eyes
and the seas open up to me
I tell you I love you
and I always will
Now I know
you can't tell me
I know
... you can't tell me
So I'm left to pick up the hints
the little symbols of your devotion
So I'm left to pick up the hints
the little symbols of your devotion
And I feel your fist
and I know it's out of love
And I feel the whip
and I know it's out of love
And I feel your burning eyes
oh, burning holes, straight through my heart
It's out of love, ooohhh
it's out of love
And I accept and I collect upon my body
the memories of your devotion
Now I accept, now I collect upon my body
the memories of your devotion, ooohhh
Now I feel your fist
and I know it's out of love
And I feel the whip
and I know it's out of love
And I feel your burning eyes
burning holes, straight through my heart
It's out of love, ooohhh
it's out of love, oh
Give me a little serious love
give me a little fistful of love
Fistful of love, wow bon bon wow
Fist, fist, fist
fistful of love, ooohhh darling, wow wow wow
You give me a little bit
give me a little fistful of love
ooohhh, ooohhh, ooohhh
Give me, ooohhh, give me
fistful of love
Ooohhh, give me a little
give me a little
give me fistful of love
give a little bit, give a little bit of fistful of love
Ooohhh, ooohhh baby
give me a little bit of fistful of love
Ooohhh, little ....
Give me little, little bit
give me little, little bit
