Chocolate

Feels like I never ever tasted love before
You came to me and opened up the door
To my emotions somehow
Feels like I’ve never ever been in love before
It tastes so good I’m so wanting more
My hunger it screens out loud

And it says please, won’t you take me away
Save me from this daily dread
Bring to me such joy instead
Give me a sign, am I living a dream
While yesterday I was so immune
Maybe now’s my chance to change my tune

Well I don’t know I’m so confused
Is there nothing to explain
Is this true love or are you
Are you just chocolate for my brain
When you smile I lose control
With your sweetness I’m naive
You hold my hand and that’s when
My heart is yearning to believe
To believe, to believe, that you’re the one for me
Could it be, could it be, that you’re the one for me

Instrumental

Feels like I never ever had a life before
You’ve given me a whirlwind tour
Just by the glint of your gaze

And I’m amazed that you’ve taken to me
A man of plain vanilla scope
Who when it comes to love has the grace of a dope
Please pinch me, if I’m being a Grinch
While yesterday I was so immune
Maybe now’s my chance to change my tune

[Chorus – no post chorus]

I’m reaching out from the bottom of a hole
Where to a fault you’ll find me far too rational

[Chorus]

But I do like chocolate in my brain
Works very well with good champagne
At curing all romantic pain
But as they say no pain no gain
