Lyrics
Held in your arms in the back seat
Cruising down the main street
How can anyone have such little defense?
You’re soft
In between the sheets, left in limbo
Covered me like the pillow
I can hardly tell the difference
You’re soft
So soft
To be, to be with you
I’d leave everything
But I don’t know how to deal with you
I swear you’d fall like a feather if I was cruel
Love would melt me like hot butter
You’re soft
So soft
To be, to be with you
I’d do anything
Walking down the street, brushing arms
You’re moonlight dancing
I try hard to keep my feelings in
You’re soft
Dancing to the music, so low
I knead you like dough
How can anyone be so loving
And soft,
So soft?
To be, to be with you
I’d leave everything
But I don’t know how to deal with you
I swear you’d fall like a feather if I was cruel
You melt me like hot butter
You’re soft
So soft
To be, to be with you
I’d do anything
