Testo di What Love Requires

You may be Unaware, but secretly (upstairs) I've fought and cursed and bled And now I need a warm, soft breast on which to rest and calm my head And draw that living touch before I fall down dead But even Among ideals, I must reveal mine's not-so-everyday That slender wrist and iron fist that knocks my blahs away That taut and tiny body who could overtake a bear Who'd fell a redwood should its branches tangle in her hair Who is the central source of her own innder fire Who knows what love requires I know, I learned long ago That an iron will and mental skill are imperative, and so I ask my whats and whys and whens and hows and wheres and whos But still, I need that spark to fire up the machine But the things that give me charge one day so quickly seem routine So Venus, send a priestess my way worth the conquering (Let me work to be the victor I have longed to be!) Who, by so taking, shows what led to my desire And shows what love requires.
