Beauty

When you walk into the room
I breathe you in like sweet perfume
You light a spark I can't contain
A fire dancing in my veins
You are the Beauty; I am the Beast
You get the heart, they get the claws and teeth
What's mine is yours, without a plea
Even as time steals all from me
Your hands, your lips, the arch of your feet
I like to think, next time we meet
Your touch, my drug, I drink it up
I never seem to get enough
You are the Beauty; I am the Beast
You get the heart, they get the claws and teeth
What's mine is yours, without a plea
Even as time steals all from me
The rest don't hold a candle to you
No spark, no fire, just passing through
You're every hope I've ever known
The only place that feels like home
You are the Beauty; I am the Beast
You get the heart, they get the claws and teeth
What's mine is yours, without a plea
Even as time steals all from me
