i sent you my love ticked (x marks the spot) on a postcard
from my roman holiday -- put it in a letterbox on the way to trastevere --
when i was boiling hot, with sweat running at the back of my thighs,
the way it did on yours once, when you bent me over the arm of the fauteuil --
deflowered me once more with my petals all over the floor --
i saw with my hair dangling on the carpet, my cheeks gone scarlet --
when i walked the streets in the city of rome i was quite happy to be on my own --
my shoes stepping over the tramlines as the sky grew purple.
i'll love you from afar if that's the least i can do, you know that, don't you?
