Can I spend the night,
just admiring you?
maybe fix an Absolut and Cranberry, sip it nice and slow
Can my heart and soul reunite,
while I desire you?
your beautiful natural figure, lovely face and hands,
Somali butterscotch tan with a trace of Sudanese cocoa
Can I now define,
my leading role in our Utopian dream?
and write the script while we recline
Can I pause and admire this unforgettable scene?
and spread rose petals and jasmine on each and every step you climb
Let's climb the Stairway to the Everlasting,
I'm yours for the asking,
but if you're not ready baby,
I'll just chill here relaxing,
until you come to me, until you want me like I need you
Can I spend the night,
just watching you sleep, pretty lady?
turn the stereo down and be lulled to sleep by the rhythm of your breathing,
Can I now delight,
stealing kisses on the sneak tip, beautiful baby?
and enjoy that bashful smile of yours that's neither cunning nor deceiving
Can I now imagine what it would be like,
with only you and I in the world?
Can I dive deep into your consciousness on this enchanted evening?
and dive into the abyss of your past pain to extract
a precious ruby or pearl
Let's climb the Stairway to the Everlasting,
I promise my love entry into your life won't be taxing,
if you're not ready baby,
I'll just chill here basking,
in the brilliant light of your eternal lovliness
Can I spend the night,
thanking the Savior?
for in my darkest hour He delivered you to me,
Can I spend the night,
monitoring my behavior?
I won't move too fast because my love for you is dipped in sincerity
Can I spend the night,
contemplating our shared destiny, pretty lady?
and make flight plans to meet you on the moon,
Can I control myself,
in the midst of all this sensual intensity, beautiful baby?
I know we will make love at the perfect time, not a moment too soon
Let's climb the Stairway to the Everlasting,
the attention I pay you won't be harassing,
I know being a single mother you do alot of multi-tasking,
but when you commit to me,
I will share your every burden, your every chore,
and more
Can I spend the night,
reading the Songs of Solomon verse?
just let you chill while my recital fades you to sleep,
Can I spend the night,
walking into a dream?
knowing you will be following like we rehearsed,
and we will reveal to the Supreme all of the promises we keep
Can I spend the night,
being thankful for our good fortune?
after a lifetime of searching I've finally found the ultimate one,
Can I spend the night,
giving you all of my love in heaping portions?
and in the morning we can pray together to the Spirit, the Father and the Son
Let's climb the Stairway to the Everlasting,
with God the producer, Jesus the director and you as my leading lady,
well that's just perfect casting,
and if you're not ready,
don't worry about me creeping or slacking,
because,
since I fell for you,
no other woman will do,
when we kiss I still taste the residue,
baby, you have become my emotional rescue,
so in this spiritual review,
I need an Ebony Princess just like you, with the perfect hue,
and I know as long as we walk with the Supreme
no man or woman can undo,
what He puts together in love,
so let's not just "make" love pretty lady,
LET'S BE LOVE,
for if we are love, we can make a life together, forever IN love
if you're not ready,
take your time, I will be right here,
I'm not going anywhere...I PROMISE TO YOU, AND MY CREATOR.
