[Verse 1]
Let's get this over with
You know I want your lips
Fall into my abyss
No need to question what this is
Don't be insensitive
I've seen you think of it
Hurried and giving in
Before the lantern begins to dim
[Chorus]
I swear I'll let you fall if you promise not to call me baby
I swear I'll let you call if you promise me that you won't fall
I could make it easier, if you want me I can please ya
The only thing boy that I need is ya to let me take control
[Verse 2]
The tide is lurking in
She's tired of flowing
The darkness' tiresome wait for dawn
[Chorus]
I swear I'll let you fall if you promise not to call me baby
I swear I'll let you call if you promise me that you won't fall
I could make it easier, if you want me I can please ya
The only thing that I need boy is to let me take control
[Bridge]
I can make you cling to me
But you've gotta do a thing for me
It doesn't have to be a mystery
We don't have to call it love
We could write three-part inventions
Explore our harmonic tension
There's no one, no need to mention love
[Chorus]
I can make it easier, if you want me I can please ya
The only thing boy that I need is ya to let me take control
[Outro]
I can make you cling to me, but you've gotta do a thing for me
It doesn't have to be a mystery, we don't have to call it love

I think that female sexual pleasure in heterosexual relationships can often take a back seat. The song is seductive but the heart of it is about taking the lead in how one wants to experience sexual pleasure.
