The Power He Has Over Me
 
     
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
 
 
  What power has he wielded over me?  
  That magnificent man who lives by the sea?  
     
  His silken voice, those darkened eyes,
 
  The powers his greatness I surmise.  
Only the half of it, there is so much more  
  To hold in my heart, to follow, to adore.  
     
  He is all that is evil, I should stray,
 
  From men like him,  
  The parental bid me stay away.  
     
  Just one look in those eyes,
 
  I've descended to Hell!
 
  So effortless it seems
 
  He weaves his intoxicating spell.
 
     
  Magic, magic man my heart skips a beat!  
  Savage, darkened soul, my madness is
 
  sweet!  
     
  You purposefully stride,
 
  You're restless in gait.
 
  Your countless incantations,
 
  For fruition you wait.
 
     
  Deliciously evil and wickedly fun!
 
  You're charming and luscious,
 
  I'm completely undone!
 
     
  How can I assuage the passion you rouse?
 
  Mortal men can't compare
 
  With the man at Eden house.
 
     
  From the depths of my soul,
 
  You conjure for me
 
  What it is to be enraptured
 
  With the spirit of thee.
 
     
  Fondly,  
  Delilah
