‘Licking An Orchid’ Lyrics:
I can be the only girl for you
Wanna hold you closer
Can I take you home?
I wanna be the one to hold you closer
Than no one has ever done before
Some call it
Pain
Some call it torture
Baby I enjoy it
Please come home
I swear i love you, dearly
No one
Can hold you
Closer
Please come home
Honestly sometimes I get scared
Lost in my own mind
Trying to find my self
In the middle of this contagious world
I reached inside our mothers womb
To find a piece of you
Recently i’ve been crying, crying
Theres a pain deep inside
But, I’m trying not to lose my
Only baby girl, to a toxic world
I crawled back in our mothers womb
To find a piece of you
I can be the only girl for - you
wanna hold you closer
Can I take you home?
I wanna be the one to hold you closer
Than no one has ever done before
Some call it
Pain
Some call it torture
Lately I enjoy it
baby please come home
I swear i’ll love you dearly
No one can hold you
Closer
Please come home
