  • Let me love, let me touch, let me love
    Baby, give it up, let me drink from the fountain
    In the car, on the street, in the dark
    Baby, on the beach, in the back of the garden

    Ooh, I'm ready, ooh, don't stop
    Ooh, I'm ready, ooh, don't stop

    You're in the club, how you dance, how you touch
    How you offer up all your love and devotion
    Roll it up, spark it up, let it burn
    On the balcony, and we can fly to the ocean

    Ooh, I'm ready, ooh, don't stop
    Ooh, I'm ready, ooh, don't stop

    You make it real, make me feel, make me feel
    I'm as strong as steel and as tall as the mountains
    Talk is cheap, can you rescue me?
    No place I'd rather be than the back of the garden

    Ooh, I'm ready, ooh, don't stop
    Ooh, I'm ready, ooh, can't stop

    Once upon a time ago
    I threw my cautions to the wind, my friend and yelled, "Geronimo!"
    And rode the wings of love to outer space
    But then I fell a thousand miles to Guantanamo
    Euphoria to torture
    I left a note that had a rhyme, it go
    Love is like a ferris wheel
    Love is like a roller coaster
    Love is at a standstill
    Body after body after body
    It's a landfill and I just caught a body
    In the lobby and got my hands filled
    I'm a serial lover
    I set up all the dates
    That rang up fate and got my friends killed
    I barely knew my dad, sometimes I feel like my mother
    I love that Purple Rain love
    That have a fight, that scratch my face
    That fuck outside and ride my motorcycle in the rain love
    Love is like a garden, love is like a death sentence
    Love is like a pardon, I'm free again and ready
    Once outside these prison walls, to believe again is scary
    Your garden is my sanctuary

    Back of the garden
    Ooh, I'm ready, ooh, don't stop
    Ooh, I'm ready, ooh, don't stop
    Yeah, ooh, I'm ready, ooh, don't stop
    Ooh, I'm ready, ooh, don't stop Writer/s: CHRIS CROWHURST, EMELI SANDE, TIMOTHY THEDFORD
