The Roof lyrics

It wasn't raining yet.
But it was definitely a little misty on
that warm November night.
And my heart was pounding.
My inner voice resounding ,
Begging me to turn away.
But I just had to see your face
to feel alive.
And then you casually walked in the room
and I was twisted in the web of
my desire for you.
And I was twisted my
apprehension blew away.
I only wanted you to
taste my sadness
a s you kissed me in the dark.

Everytime I feel the need.
I envision you caressing me.
And go back in time
to relieve the splendor of you and I
on the rooftop that rainy night.

And so we finished the Moet and
started feeling liberated.
And I surrendered as you took me
in your arms.
I was so caught up in the moment.
I couldn't bear to let you go yet.
So I threw caution to the wind
and started listening to my longing heart.
And then you softly pressed your lips to mine,
and feelings surfaced I'd suppressed.
For such a long time.
And I was lifted
and for a while I forgot
the sorrow and the pain.
And melted with you as we stood
there in the rain.

Everytime I feel the need.
I envision you caressing me.
And go back in time
to relieve the splendor of you and I
on the rooftop that rainy night.
Everytime I feel the need.
I envision you caressing me.
And go back in time
to relieve the splendor of you and I
on the rooftop that rainy night.

Last night I dreamed that I
whispered the words I love you.
And touched you so very.
Subtly as we were kissing goodbye.
Pretty baby - How I'm missing you

Every time I feel the need.
I envision you caressing me.
Envision you caressing me
And go back in time.
I go back
To relieve the splendor of you and I
on the rooftop that rainy night.
on the roof that rainy night

Everytime I feel the need.
When I feel the need
I envision you caressing me.
I envision you over and over and over again
And go back in time.
To relieve the splendor of you and I
It was oh so sweet you and I
on the rooftop that rainy night.
on that rainy night

Everytime I feel the need.
Last nigth I had the strangest dream...
I envision you caressing me.
It was actually quite symbolic
and go back in time
as I whispered...That I loved you
To relieve the splendor of you and I
...very subtly

Everytime I feel the need.
I envision you caressing me.
And go back in time.
To relieve the splendor of you and I on
the rooftop that rainy night.
