Best Man movie - Poetry Girl lyrics

Song by Eric Benet<br /><br>

Oh sing to me babe, oh<br>

She was a poetry girl I adored<br>

Late at night I'd hear songs from her window<br>

Burning frakenscense seeped through her door<br>

And they lingered on<br>

As her fingers caressed her guitar<br>

Felt like the strings of my heart she was strumming<br>

With her words we made love from afar<br>

As she sang her song, yeah<br>

<br>

[1] - They were songs of change<br>

The joy and pain<br>

All the love she made<br>

Like she took the words from<br>

Every dream I've known<br>

Every love I've grown<br>

Singing on and on<br>

Like she took the words from my heart<br>

<br>

Right out of my heart<br>

And to the poetry girl 'round the hall<br>

Late at night I would answer her calling<br>

Like the lyrics from one of her songs<br>

She made love to me<br>

Now our bodies and souls intertwine<br>

On the wings of passion we were soaring<br>

Then by the flickering candle at night<br>

She would sing to me, yeah, yeah<br>

<br>

[Repeat 1]<br>

<br>

[instrumental]<br>

<br>

Love is often unkind when we fall<br>

For now my poetry girl sings to another<br>

But when I think of those nights down the hall<br>

From somewhere deep inside<br>

<br>

[2] - I sing songs of change<br>

The joy and pain<br>

All the love I've made<br>

And I take the words from<br>

Every dream I've known<br>

Every love I've grown<br>

Singing on and on<br>

And I take the words from the heart<br>

<br>

[Repeat 1 till end]<br>
