Deep liquid eyes soft as a breeze

Come lure you away

With an intoxicating sweetness

But not chocolate

His aftertaste too bitter for love

Yet still leaves a longing,

A craving for more.

Baby give me that honey

Your candied kiss

And when you’re gone I’ll ignore

The coffee tang you leave

Clean my mouth minty fresh

So when my love returns

He’ll never suspect the salt in the sugar.
