I Could Have Been Your Wife

hotel

Oh yes, I’ll be your mistress.
I could have been your wife,
but I held out for far too long
and you got on with your life.

We met again last spring
and with only just one look,
that ole flame did surge anew
and in your grip, my body shook.

I was always first with you.
And you never got over me.
We went in opposite directions.
But now, we’re where we want to be.

When I’m safely in your arms,
I take all I can get.
You know I’m always here
hot and ready and oh so wet.

We’ll make it work somehow,
though we live so far apart.
You say you love me still,
when you leave, you take my heart.

We meet in two short weeks.
I’ll be right by your side.
I could never give you up.
This time, love will not be denied.
