Lyrics
Whisper to me softly
Breathe words upon my skin
No one’s near and listening
So please don’t say goodbye
Just hold me close and love me
Press your lips to mine
Mmm feels so right, feels so right
Lying here beside you
I hear the echoes of your sighs
Promise me you’ll stay with me
And keep me warm tonight
So hold me close and love me
Give my heart a smile
Mmm feels so right, feels so right
Your body feels so gentle
And my passion rises high
You’re loving me so easy
Your wish is my command
Just hold me close and love me
Tell me it won’t end
Mmm feels so right, feels so right
Feels so right
Ah, you feel so right baby
